520 Nat Hentoff, renowned jazz critic, civil liberties
activist, and fearless contrarian--"I'm a Jewish atheist
civil-libertarian pro-lifer"--has lived through much of
jazz's history and has known many of jazz's most important
figures, often as friend and confidant. Hentoff has been a
tireless advocate for the neglected parts of jazz history,
including forgotten sidemen and -women. This volume
includes his best recent work--short essays, long
interviews, and personal recollections. From Duke
Ellington and Louis Armstrong to Ornette Coleman and
Quincy Jones, Hentoff brings the jazz greats to life and
traces their art to gospel, blues, and many other forms of
American music. At the Jazz Band Ball also includes
Hentoff's keen, cosmopolitan observations on a wide range
of issues. The book shows how jazz and education are a
vital partnership, how free expression is the essence of
liberty, and how social justice issues like health care
and strong civil rights and liberties keep all the arts--
and all members of society--strong
