Excellent reference work on older musicians This book is an alphabetical listing of jazz musicians, all born before 1920, with pertinent and, in some cases, rather detailed biographical information given for each. Many of these names will not be found in any other jazz reference books.Chilton trie. shoelady said old friend. This book replaces one that my husband has owned and cherished for many years. He often consults it for information about musicians whose work he meets on old vinyl records. Since he is now 90 years old, the people in this book are contemporaries of his..
