Review title: Marvellous Book
Product review: Delightfully encyclopedic - its commentary is at the same time historical, musical, and addictively readable. So far, their reccomendations have not steered me wrong, however, I would say that their broad tastes are not for everyone. They will equally rate questionably listenable free jazz with the most divinely inspired bebop, and they aren't consistent in describing the sound and styles of lesser known artists, which makes investing in any of these a little nerve-wracking.Some have said this before, and I agree, that the book could strongly use a few appendices - an index (listing by albums, styles of jazz) and a short list of their favorite albums would save one time (instead of having to flip through 1500 pages).It is the best book of its kind out there, though, and its entirely worth its cost in the money it will save you.
