Böcker av Bill Shoemaker

This book examines the work of select musicians from the United Kingdom during the upheaval of Brexit and the COVID-19 pandemic and places them in contemporary and historical contexts. Bill Shoemaker profiles a diverse cast of subjects and enhances our understanding of experimental music and its role in evolving multiculturalism.

Shoemaker explores the musicians and music of one of the most important decades in jazz history, looking at events overlooked in most jazz histories, which too often stop at the 1960s. He argues that this period in jazz history saw an explosion of artist-produced recordings and the successful marketing of radical artists by major record labels.
