This week on the JazzBites Show Anthea Redmond reviews the eagerly-awaited new book by popular British Jazz writer and author, SAMMY STEIN. A senior writer for JAZZ IN EUROPE, and regular contributor for Something Else Reviews, All About Jazz, and Kind of Jazz, Sammy Stein has garnered a loyal and appreciative army of fans in their tens of thousands from all corners of the globe with her refreshingly honest style of writing that brings a prototypical dimension to Jazz journalism. In this groundbreaking new book, the author interviews artists, musicians, record labels, arts management, venue owners, magazine journalists, and radio station producers to explore the genre of Jazz throughout History and the way it's evolved and re-invented itself across numerous decades into the fascinating multi-faceted music we have today. All That's Jazz is both an intense and enjoyable learning curve: a structured biopic into Jazz from those looking out from the inside making this book everything it says it is, and more. As Sammy Stein herself will tell you, "It's all about the music."
