Kevin Whitehead does tell why!By lee brownKevin Whitehead has written the liveliest and. incidentally. the most compact and yet complete book on jazz you will find. His answer to the question posed in the title is simple. if a little misleadingly so: Once you learn something about how jazz works. you will realize how much fun it is. The books Q A format applies a little artificially now and then. but is easily ignored in those cases. The book benefits from the fact that KW is a colorful writer. a fact that sets him off from most jazz journalists and historians. and from all jazz theorists. Lee B.
