Hard Bop Jazz and Black Music 1955-1965 by David Rosenthal PDF eBook

Hard bop, the mid-1950s resurgence of bebop, was an eclectic movement
Poets ) spiritedly demonstrates here. His encyclopedic overview covers
the accomplishments of the jazz "greats" of the period, from the lyrical
compositions of Benny Golson and Gigi Gryce, the soul jazz of saxophonist
Stanley Turrentine and the "bad" trumpet of Lee Morgan to the heterodox
talents of Thelonious Monk, Charles Mingus, Miles Davis and John Coltrane.
Relating hard bop to gospel, blues and black popular traditions, the study
emphasizes its roots in the dark, sinister mood of ghettos and discusses
its demise after the 1960s as many blacks joined the middle class, moved
out of inner cities and were increasingly influenced by white culture.
Lively prose and perceptive characterization of musicians and their
performances make the book a welcome resource for jazz fans and music
historians.
