Reviews

<p>. ..a welcome and much-needed addition to the documentation of jazz inAmerica. -- Hank O'Neal, record producer, photographer, and author of The Ghosts ofHarlem, among many other books


Open Kathy Sloane's new book, Keystone Korner, and you can smell the cigarette smoke... and you can hear Bill Evans or Stan Getz playing this cramped room in North Beach 30 or 40 years ago. -San Francisco Chronicle The intersection of Sloane's presence and the Keystone's reputation as a venue for both premier and up-and-coming musicians resulted in an extraordinary photographic record of many of jazz's leading lights in action. -LIBRARY JOURNAL From the antics of the photo-laden backroom to the underground hype of Ora Harris' Keystone Kitchen, Sloane and fellow editor Sascha Feinstein leave no stone unturned. They examine the backstories of some of Keystone's most lovable characters... [Keystone Korner] is a delightful sensory overload definitive of the Keystone experience. -Downbeat


<p>. ..a welcome and much-needed addition to the documentation of jazz inAmerica. -- Nat Hentoff, record producer, photographer, and author of The Ghosts ofHarlem, among many other books
