Like the two jazz books by Gunther Schuller, Sudhalter's
"Lost Chords" is one of the great jazz books. And, like
Schuller's books, it will have you returning to your record
collection to re-discover many delights.

The very idea that jazz produced by whites should be
studied as a separate subject appears "racist" to some.
Anticipating this, Sudhalter discusses the matter in his
Introduction.
