Description and Table of Contents

Description

Black music has always expressed, consciously or not, its African "oral" heritage, reflecting the conditions of a minority culture in the midst of a white majority. This book is a partly sociological, partly musical study of black American culture which focuses particularly on the blues, jazz and rhythm and blues of this century. It provides an understanding Afro-American culture and an appreciation of its influence on 20th-century culture as a whole.
