The Definitive Jazz & Blues Encyclopedia, now fully updated
from the illustrated edition, is the ultimate guide to two musical
styles that have fundamentally influenced popular music. Divided
into chapters, each covering a different era, the book traces the
evolution of jazz and blues from their nineteenth-century
African-American origins right through to the present day. Each
chapter starts with a Sounds & Sources section, looking at the
key developments in the music during that period. This is followed
by an A-Z of artists from that era, with more extensive entries on
key artists that include recommended classic recordings. With
further sections on Styles, covering everything from Ragtime to
Bebop and Texas Blues to Rhythm & Blues, and more; and
Instruments, all written by a team of experts, this invaluable
encyclopedia is comprehensive, easy to use and highly informative.
