BeBop Posted February 23, 2004 Report Share Posted February 23, 2004 Heading overseas for a while. Want to pack one jazz book (knowing I won't be able to hear any jazz while traveling and knowing I won't be able to pick up a jazz book while overseas). The following books are unread on the bookshelf. Have persused the cover notes, but want to pick the best of the bunch: Bill Evans: How My Heart Sings (Pettinger) - Obviously, this has received some 'ink' here and on other boards, so I know more about this than the others. Jazz Profiles (Carver/Bernstein) - Again, a fairly widely read book. Blue Bossa: A Novel (Schneider) Bebop: The Music and Players (Owens) Forces in Motion: The Music and Thoughts of Anthony Braxton (Lock) Any thoughts?

Brad Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 I hate to admit this but I picked up the Owens Bebop book a while ago and never got a chance to read this. What's your views on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
