This is a free-swinging book that follows literally its title though it will be an unusual reader who doesn't decide pretty soon that Miss Bailey is talking to him too. Crammed with anecdotes and with highly independent opinions about contemporary life, this book at first seems, however lively, to have little unity. But the further one reads, the clearer it becomes that there is a hidden order to the whole work. Miss Bailey discusses with obvious delight, sometimes with passion and sometimes with humor, the state of the nation, the American family, the conflict between the generations, the entertainment world and the perils of fame,and the perennial themes of birth and love and hate and death. She is often uproariously funny, she is full of compassion, and at times strikes profoundly into the human soul...." $4.50 Bailey, Pearl The Raw Pearl Pocket Books 1971 Mass Market Paperback.

(filed under: Music / Jazz, Blues/Big Band ) * stock image, actual book may vary Playboy the magazine, the empire, the lifestyle is one of the world s best-known brands. Since the launch of Playboy magazine in 1953, two elements have been remarkably consistent: the first, obviously, is the celebration of nubile, female flesh. The second, readers may be surprised to learn, is Playboy s involvement in the music scene. The Playboy experience was never just about sex but about lifestyle. Music particularly the finest jazz, a personal passion of Hefner s has always been an essential component of that lifestyle. Playboy Swings focuses specifically on Playboy s involvement in the music scene, its impact on popular entertainment and vice versa , and the fabulous cadre of performers who took to the stages of the mythic Playboy Clubs and Jazz Festivals. Throughout Playboy Swings , Farmer demonstrates how Playboy helped change the world through music by integrating the TV shows, festivals, and the clubs. Complied through interviews with hundreds of people who were on the scene throughout Playboy s rise, fall, and on-going renaissance, Playboy Swings carries readers on a seductive journey through the history of the empire all the while focusing on the musical entertainment that made it unique . Hef s personal passion for music and his belief in it as a cornerstone of the Playboy ethos has expressed itself in a wide range of media over Playboy s 60-year history, and all of it comes alive in these pages. Famer takes the reader from the inception of the Playboy empire through the 1959 jazz festival, to the opening of club after club. With approximately 60 black and white photos, and a complete Playboy music reference guide, readers will think of music, not just Bunnies, when thinking about Playboy. Throughout the book, it is the artists who do most of the talking and they have a lot to say about the golden era of Playboy entertainment. $4.99 Giddins, Gary Riding on a Blue Note: Jazz and American Pop Oxford University Press, USA 1982 paperback.

(filed under: Music / Jazz, Blues/Big Band ) * stock image, actual book may vary Gary Giddins, winner of the 1998 National Book Critics Circle Award, has a following that includes not only jazz enthusiasts but also pop music fans of every stripe. Writing here in a lyrical and celebratory style all his own, Giddins dazzlingly shows us among many other things how performers originally perceived as radical Bing Crosby, Count Basie, Elvis Presley became conservative institutions ... how Charlie Parker created a masterpiece from the strain of an inane ditty ... how the Dominoes helped combine church ritual with pop music ... and how Irving Berlin translated a chiaroscuro of Lower East Side minorities into imperishable songs. $9.99 Godbolt, Jim World Of Jazz: In Printed Ephemera And Collectibles Wellfleet Press 1991 hardcover.
