Summary Annotation "Bebop - hard driving, discordant, melodically unconventional - introduced new sounds and innovative rhythms that changed the face of jazz. Korall looks at this music through the eyes of the musicians themselves, covering a whole range of important jazz drummers, but focusing upon the most original and significant - principally Kenny Clarke, Max Roach, and Art Blakey. Korall provides a knowledgeable background about the history of bebop - and the unfortunate and almost universal heroin addiction that swept through the jazz world in the wake of Charlie Parker's habit."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
