Beginning in 1963 with Dorham's recordings in Denmark, this book-length poem traces the story of the Texan's career performing with the greatest musicians of the bop and hard bop eras in jazz history--including Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Bud Powell, Sonny Rollins, and John Coltrane. Also discussing extensive traveling as a musician and his lamentably short-lived group the Jazz Prophets, this account demonstrates why Dorham remains something of a cult figure despite his premature death at age 48.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wings Press (TX)","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45084695199895,"sku":"9780916727956","price":1155.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780916727956.webp?v=1767637105","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/kd-a-jazz-biography-9780916727956","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
