The Uncrowned King of Swing: Fletcher Henderson and Big Band Jazz Paperback - 2008
by Jeffrey Magee
Whether placing Fletcher Henderson's life in the context of the Harlem Renaissance or describing how network radio made the Henderson-Goodman style a national standard, Magee brings to life a monumental musician who helped to shape an era.
First line
IN HIS CLASSIC BOOK of criticism The Jazz Tradition, Martin Williams explored the work of individual musicians who, in his view, constructed a continuous artistic lineage and collectively ensured the survival and development of the music.
