Jazz and Its Discontents by Francis Davis, Paperback | Indigo Chapters In Brampton, ON

From Frank Sinatra to Sun Ra, from the jazz age to middle age, with thoughts on everything in-between, Francis Davis has been writing about American music and American culture for more than twenty years. His essays have appeared inThe Atlantic Monthly, The New Yorker, and theVillageVoice among countless other publications from coast to coast. And now, for the first time, here are his most important writings of his impressive career-the quintessential Davis on everything from why Rent set musicals back two decades, to what Ken Burns should have filmed. And Davis's writing is as enjoyable as the music of which he writes. The New York TimesBook Review has compared Davis's work to "a well-blown solo." | Jazz and Its Discontents by Francis Davis, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
