Reviews:
“John Chilton has done a fine service for jazz readers everywhere with his well-written reference guide to who is who in British jazz. The entries are concise and highly interesting. Each entry is full of facts hard to find elsewhere. If you are looking for a nice, reliable reference book to add to your collection, this one on British jazz is worth your time. It would be a good book to have your local Public Library order for its patrons. Highly recommended.”
