The poems here cover the range of jazz itself: from early blues to free jazz and experimental music. Among the 132 poets included are James Baldwin, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Langston Hughes, Jack Kerouac, Mina Loy, Ishmael Reed, and Sonia Sanchez. This anthology represents the broad appreciation for jazz as poetic inspiration, not only from the Beat movement but from writers across the decades and around the world., This anthology represents the broad appreciation for jazz as poetic inspiration, not only from the Beat movement but from writers across the decades and around the world., " . . . in a class by itself . . . sensitive, moving, and powerful jazz imagery . . . the perfect companion to listening to good jazz." ?Jazziz Magazine "In the course of the history of jazz, there have been only a few articles that get to the core of the meaning of jazz.

    Received my order and the strings in the package weren't the right brand. Contacted the seller and the issue was quickly resolved. That aside, my items were packaged well and the strings I received looked great and were of good quality. For the price, condition and customer service, A+ Recommend!

    Item as described and fine value. Packaging was secure. Arrived safely. It was so good to hear Mike again after all these years! I had this on an 8 track many years ago; and it is so good to have it again!

    The book is a good selection of ME's songs. Unfortunately it got damaged in the mail as it was posted in an ordinary paper envelope with no protection. The seller was very fair and refunded. I just wish she had packed it better as a mint copy got badly bent out of shape. So poor marks for packaging but top marks for customer service.
