The volume is well organized and includes an extensive bibliography...Highly Recommended. -- J.C. Wanser, CHOICE Absorbing, illuminating, thought provoking, this is the scholarly work that Latin jazz knew it needed. -- Songlines Chris Washburne has put together an amazingly well researched and engaging book. It not only serves as an illuminating guide through the longstanding and complex relationship between Latin America and Jazz music, but makes the case for Latin American Jazz musicians as major players in the development and evolution of this genre. Highly recommended. -- Miguel Zenon , (Saxophonist, Composer and Educator) Dr. Washburne has the receipts! Informed by the author's decades as a working musician and bandleader, this passionate work of high-level scholarship counterpoints historical inquiry with lived ecstatic experience. In laying out his case for the multicultural nature of music, Washburne goes straight to the thorny issue of how racialized and nationalized genre divides have repeatedly erased the fundamentally modern, world-shaking, Afro-Latin music from the overarching jazz narrative. Meanwhile, he's eager to introduce you to the rich world of musical geniuses who are living and creating in clave right now. -- Ned Sublette, author of Cuba and Its Music
