The last phrase of his foreword reads as follows :- ?Every fan who appreciates Jazz is indebted to Panassie because he has enlightened millions how to enjoy good jazz. And quite naturally, I?m grateful, because I live Jazz. This is old Satchmo saying - a bientot.? The dictionary is a seminal title on the Jazz work of the American Negro. Panassie, although not averse to the more ?modern? forms of Jazz-derived music, considered that some of the hybrid forms performed in Europe should be given some other name and in this work all musicians given an entry in the Dictionary are of the Negro race unless stated to the contrary. (from the foreword and the translator?s notes).* A NEAR FINE copy with NO MAJOR FAULTS but reduced by dust jacket ageing to VG* 1959-01-01. n.
