Book Review

Texan Jazz

Texan Jazz by Dave Oliphant, published by University of Texas Press

Reviewed by Mike Shea

May 2000


Dave Oliphant claims the definitive (well, the only) treatise on the pervasive influence of Texas' sons and daughters on the jazz world. His crisp, near-scholarly style wisely avoids simple-headed romanticism of his subject. And the interchange of jazz players from project to project seems downright . . . promiscuous.
