Industry Reviews "With no axe to grind, there's no hiding behind ideology: Davis comes to terms with the work at hand and on its own terms." Philadelphia Inquirer - Kirby Kean (06/16/1996)
"These essays represent [Davis's] continued searched for 'audible individuality' as embodied by sounds as dissimilar as the coruscating free jazz of saxophonist Charles Gayle and the melody-driven romanticism of trumpeter Ruby Braff. At the same time, Davis's profiles are exemplary in their reproduction of diverse voices....At the heart of the book, though, is a single theme that unites all of these disparate figures: Despite the success of a handful of younger artists, it is as difficult to be a jazz musician today as it has ever been." Rubin
