"Black Music, White Business probes the principal contradiction in the jazz world:
that between black artistry on the one hand and white ownership of the means of jazz
distribution - the recording companies, booking agencies, festivals, nightclubs and
magazines - on the other."--BOOK JACKET. "Drawing on a wide variety of sources as
well as his own experiences, Frank Kofsky brings to light the exploitation to which
jazz creators historically have been subjected and the racist contempt with which
many industry executives view jazz."--Jacket
