9780436205200: Blue Note Records: The Biography

Synopsis

The first book to chronicle the life of the famous and influential jazz label.

Blue Note stands for more than just extraordinary music; its photography and jacket designs became an arbiter of style. Musicians Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, Bud Powell, Sonny Rollins and - perhaps the archetypal Blue Note group - Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers all made their most significant early records at Blue Note. This book details the history of the label from its beginnings in 1939, along with a parallel analysis of all the major records it released.
