vi JAZZ
books on jazz that are available. Some of these books are listed at the end of this volume—my indebtedness to them in compiling this book will be obvious.
To keep the story essentially simple, I've done some leaving out here and there. If you find no mention of your favourite musician or band or critic or gramophone record, then at least this book will give you plenty of signposts to help you look for these things yourself.
For ready and unstinting help in collecting material, I am grateful to the Editor of The Melody Maker and the Editor of The Record Mirror. Mr. James Asman has given me invaluable help about records, and has written the very complete and informative guide to record collecting which appears in Appendix "B". Mr. Max Jones has taken a lot of time and trouble in making suggestions for a basic record collection, and I am grateful to him and to Mr. Frank Parr for the list of "50 LPs" which appears in Appendix "B". Finally, I must.thank Mr. Peter Watt who read through the MS, made many helpful suggestions, and compiled the useful lists of "Worthwhile 78 r.p.m. Records" and "Deleted Records" in Appendix "B". |
