Must read on Kansas City JazzBy AlmalPaints a vivid picture of an often overlooked piece of jazz history.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Jeremy BrownBy JeremyCovers the right ground. I like what the authors accomplished here. They unearthed forgotten KC artists and tied them in with known stories. They wrote a new; relevant jazz history book. My one complaint is that they focused too much on Birds drug use when covering him. It shouldnt be avoided; but Id like to read as much about Birds music as I did about Andy Kirk and Bennie Motens.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Not well written but still a good readBy Keith C. JonesThe material is thorough and well researched. My only complaint is the writing is stilted. It reads the way one of my freshman English papers did. But everything you would want to know about Kansas City Jazz is here.
