Title: Blue Note jazz photography of Francis Wolff
Description: "Following the success of Rizzoli's The Blue Note Years, the archive of Francis Wolff photographs has been opened once again to present a previously unseen collection of dynamic images. Included are never-before-published color images from Wolff's later years of photography. This volume is a collection of the jazz photographs taken from 1941 to 1968 by Francis Wolff, cofounder of Blue Note Records, to document the recording sessions that made Blue Note the world's most famous jazz label." "Vignettes tell the story of Blue Note Records: its founders, Alfred Lion and Francis Wolff; recording master, Rudy Van Geider; and many of the label's great artists - Jimmy Smith, Miles Davis, Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Grant Green, John Coltrane, Lee Morgan, Hank Mobley, Joe Henderson, and Art Blakey, among others."--Jacket.
