"Is jazz dead? In these pages, Tom Piazza takes aim at those who have argued that it is. Combining his influential reportage and criticism from The New York Times, The New Republic, and elsewhere with a series of bold and broad new essays, Blues Up and Down chronicles two decades of upheaval in the jazz world - and presents a persuasive argument for the music's continuing role in our culture."--BOOK JACKET.
