Hardback. The New York loft jazz scene of the 1970s was a pivotal period for uncompromising, artist-produced work.

This is a study of this period. Num Pages: 272 pages, 1 music ex; 21 HTs. BIC Classification: 1KBBEY; 3JJPL; AVGJ; HBJK; HBLW3; HBTB. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 229 x 152 x 20.

Paperback. Although "Exile in Guyville" was grudgingly celebrated as one of 1990's top records by "Spin" and the "New York Times", it was also some people's idea of an abomination: a mockery of the Rolling Stones' revered record and a rare glimpse into the psyche of a shrewd, independent, strong young woman. This title presents a re-assessment of this album. Series: 33 1/3. Num Pages: 136 pages. BIC Classification: AVA; AVGP; AVH. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 167 x 126 x 9.
