| Abstract |
New Orleans native jazz drummer, journalist, and teacher Suhor (b. 1935) reprints 26 articles to counter what he believes are misconceptions about the jazz scene during the two and half decades. He arranges them in sections reflecting the perspectives of the New Orleans establishment's belated pride, revivals, and modern jazz and its pioneers during the period. |
