SUMMARY

"[BOOGALOO is] a panoramic critical survey of black popular music over some 75 years, and which emphasizes the continuities that underlie fashion cycles. There is no book quite like it....Kempton has chosen to tell the story as a multiple or sequential biography...[and] the form allows for an intimacy not available to other sorts of historiography....[H]e has made subtle choices that may not immediately appear inevitable but soon prove convincing."Kempton, Arthur is the author of 'Boogaloo The Quintessence of American Popular Music', published 2005 under ISBN 9780472030873 and ISBN 0472030876.
