Jazz On Cd

Concurrent with the CD boom has come a jazz boom. Record companies have reissued classics by Armstrong, Ellington and Bessie Smith, and discovered how the uncluttered reproduction of a CD enhances the work of Beiderbecke and Davis. Also made available is the work of a whole range of contemporary musicians and lesser-known artists from the past. This updated edition offers an assessment of the jazz recordings available on CD, providing a detailed annotation of over 700 CDs.
