Louis Armstrong, Master of Modernism by Thomas BrothersMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This was a very good and enlightening musician biography. I like the music cues for select CDs to go and hear what is being written about. This has a nice balance: career biography and the necessary social biography as this innovator moved through a changing and even dangerous racial landscape. There is a nice seasoning of musicological analysis.
