The Penguin Guide to Jazz on CD is a critical guide to recorded jazz from its beginnings to the present. For jazz fans it will pay for itself by helping avoid the purchase of inferior recordings. This book contains over 10,000 entries and is organized alphabetically by artist.
“Smooth jazz” fans may be disappointed, but many others will regard it as a bible of sorts, the preeminent guide for jazz recordings.
The index includes all personnel listed in the CD reviews.
Richard Cook is an editor at Jazz Review and Brian Morton is a BBC announcer. They released their first edition of The Penguin Guide to Jazz on CD in 1992.

you in your research and guide you in your recreational reading.
The books used to research and develop JazzStandards.com are
listed at the right and the listing may be considered the site bibliography.
The primary focus of these books is not always the jazz standards
per se, so each entry is annotated indicating the book's relevance
to the subject. If there is a book you feel we have overlooked,
please let us know the title and how it supports the research or
recreational study of the jazz standards.
