Weather Bird, a brilliant companion volume to the critically acclaimed Visions of Jazz, offers a superb collection of essays, reviews and articles. Gary Giddins brings together more than 140 pieces written over a 14-year period. Highlights include an astute look at avant-garde music ("Parajazz") and his challenging essay, "How Come Jazz Isn't Dead?" which advances a theory about the way art is born, exploited, celebrated, and sidelined to the museum.
