On the heels of swing, bebop lifted jazz from the dance floor into an art form powered by virtuoso players. This engaging collection of essays, biographies and reviews by veteran jazz journalist Scott Yanow probes the lives and revolutionary works of more than 500 great beboppers, including the giants: Charlie Parker, Dizzie Gillespie, Bud Powell, Max Roach and Thelonious Monk. The guide also explores key artists such as Sarah Vaughan, Charlie Christian and the young Miles Davis, plus such later figures as Joe Pass and Barry Harris.
Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Scott Yanow (Burbank, CA) has been writing about jazz of all eras and styles since 1975. He has written for virtually all of the significant jazz magazines, including Downbeat, Jazz Times, Jazziz, Coda, Cadence, and the Los Angeles Jazz Scene, as well as being a major contributor to the All Music Guide to Jazz. In addition, he has penned over 600 liner notes. It is estimated that Yanow has reviewed more jazz CDs than anyone in history. The Great Jazz Guitarists is his eleventh book.
