As a journalist with a vast experience covering jazz, Stryker uses his knowledge and relationships with esteemed musicians to inform his discussions. . . . Jazz from Detroit will be entertaining to jazz aficionados and might encourage a younger generation of scholars and journalists to engage more thoroughly with living, modern-day musicians., "This is a really interesting book. Once you read it, you're guaranteed to wind up chasing down dozens of records ... I've always known I should learn more about his deep catalog, I just never have until now. It's a perfect summer project." --Phil Freeman, Stereogum, This is a really interesting book. Once you read it, you're guaranteed to wind up chasing down dozens of records ... I've always known I should learn more about his deep catalog, I just never have until now. It's a perfect summer project., Though Detroit is known for its legendary Motown music, former Detroit Free Press journalist Stryker's exceptional book shows in swinging detail why the city was also a major focal point for jazz. . . . This astute music history will be a boon for jazz fans., "Jazz from Detroit is full of anecdotes and witty stories that will put a smile on the reader's face. As a journalist with a vast experience covering jazz, Stryker uses his knowledge and relationships with esteemed musicians to inform his discussions. ... Jazz from Detroit will be entertaining to jazz aficionados and might encourage a younger generation of scholars and journalists to engage more thoroughly with living, modern-day musicians." - Jazz and Culture, " Jazz from Detroit is a masterpiece--one of the most insightful books about this music ever written. Mark Stryker's perceptive commentary will resonate with both aficionados and newcomers to jazz." --Ethan Iverson "No city has meant more to American musical culture than Detroit. In the bass register alone, Paul Chambers, Ron Carter and James Jamerson provided the foundation for the sum of the greatest music of the 20th century, and we can continue to climb the entire frequency range to find the same deep and detailed descriptions of American life at its very best through the ideas and voices of iconic Detroit musicians. Deeply researched and expertly rendered, Mark Stryker's Jazz from Detroit has provided a diligent and insightful window into every aspect of how Detroit came to be one of the major centers of modern American musical research. This is an important and highly entertaining document that will stand as a definitive testament to the musical culture of Detroit." --Pat Metheny, "With a smooth and deeply informed style Mark Stryker in Jazz from Detroit writes authoritatively about the city's almost matchless contribution to the history of jazz. His profiles of some of the iconic figures in jazz are so insightfully drawn, so musical that you are tempted to stop reading and listen to their recordings." --Herb Boyd, author of Black Detroit: A People's History of Self-Determination, Building on his many years of covering the jazz scene in Detroit, Stryker (long-time journalist for the Detroit Free Press ) has produced an important book about many of the luminaries of Motown. ... Highly recommended., "Mark Stryker covered jazz and its people for the Detroit Free Press for decades. He uses his reporter's eye and critic's ear to chronicle the musicians from the city who made their mark on the world." --NPR, Ask the question, where does jazz happen, and the likely answer will be New York (or New Orleans, for the historically minded). No one is going to mention Detroit, not even dedicated jazz fans. But take out a piece of paper and write down the names of great and notable jazz musicians, and time and again their personal and/or musical home town will turn out to be the Motor City. Skip the paper and pen and glance through the table of contents of Mark Stryker's new book ... Detroit jazz has a fine tribute in this book., Jazz from Detroit flows with memorable in-person color, deep research, and musical descriptions that feel at once technically adept and elegant., "There is no other city like Detroit: the musicians, the vibe, the people. Thank you, Mark Stryker, for Jazz from Detroit ." --Sonny Rollins, "Ask the question, where does jazz happen, and the likely answer will be New York (or New Orleans, for the historically minded).

Synopsis
Jazz from Detroit explores the city's pivotal role in shaping the course of modern and contemporary jazz. With more than two dozen in-depth profiles of remarkable Detroit-bred musicians, complemented by a generous selection of photographs, Mark Stryker makes Detroit jazz come alive as he draws out significant connections between the players, eras, styles, and Detroit's distinctive history. Stryker's story starts in the 1940s and '50s, when the auto industry created a thriving black working and middle class in Detroit that supported a vibrant nightlife, and exceptional public school music programs and mentors in the community like pianist Barry Harris transformed the city into a jazz juggernaut. This golden age nurtured many legendary musicians--Hank, Thad, and Elvin Jones, Gerald Wilson, Milt Jackson, Yusef Lateef, Donald Byrd, Tommy Flanagan, Kenny Burrell, Ron Carter, Joe Henderson, and others. As the city's fortunes change, Stryker turns his spotlight toward often overlooked but prescient musician-run cooperatives and self-determination groups of the 1960s and '70s, such as the Strata Corporation and Tribe. In more recent decades, the city's culture of mentorship, embodied by trumpeter and teacher Marcus Belgrave, ensured that Detroit continued to incubate world-class talent; Belgrave prot g s like Geri Allen, Kenny Garrett, Robert Hurst, Regina Carter, Gerald Cleaver, and Karriem Riggins helped define contemporary jazz. The resilience of Detroit's jazz tradition provides a powerful symbol of the city's lasting cultural influence. Stryker's 21 years as an arts reporter and critic at the Detroit Free Press are evident in his vivid storytelling and insightful criticism. Jazz from Detroit will appeal to jazz aficionados, casual fans, and anyone interested in the vibrant and complex history of cultural life in Detroit., Mark Stryker celebrates Detroit's profound influence on jazz from the mid-20th century through the present day., Jazz from Detroit explores the city's pivotal role in shaping the course of modern and contemporary jazz.
