Digging - The Afro-American Soul of American Classical Music Baraka AmiriPaperback / softback
For almost half a century, Amiri Baraka has ranked among the most important commentators on African American music and culture. As in his earlier classics, Blues People and Black Music, Baraka offers essays on the famous-Max Roach, Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, John Coltrane-and on those whose names are known mainly by jazz aficionados-Alan Shorter, Jon Jang, and Malachi Thompson. In this brilliant assemblage of his writings on music, the first such collection in nearly twenty years, Baraka blends autobiography, history, musical analysis, and political commentary to recall the sounds, people, times, and places he's encountered.
His energy and enthusiasm show us again how much Coltrane, Albert Ayler, and the others he lovingly considers mattered. He Baraka's literary style, with its deep roots in poetry, makes palpable his love and respect for his jazz musician friends.
