Photographs of groundbreaking jazz artists from the 60' and 70'. Beautiful book - tip!
During the 1960s and into the early 1970s, jazz music in the USA was in an almost constant state of revolution with the music and lives of African-American artists radicalised by civil rights, the avant garde, Black Power and a new spiritual awakening.
The stunning photographs of the many groundbreaking jazz artists featured in this book capture the radicalism and self-determination that existed for all these artists during this intense and profound period in time.
