From the Publisher:
Praise for Blues Up and Down:
"Peppery, bristling, inspired...Piazza tosses off ear-and-brain openers at an exciting rate." --Ray Sawhill, Salon
"Tom Piazza's quest to understand the forces that lead to musical creativity has led him to write some of the most humanely rendered portraits in contemporary music criticism....The strength of [Blues Up and Down] is in the new writings, which specifically delineate a case for open minds, ears and hearts....This is an important book, in large part because for Piazza everything is worth consideration. And what better way is there to move through life?" --David Greenberger, Pulse
"Uncommon breadth and musical sophistication...Piazza is one of the most literate writers covering jazz...[Blues Up and Down] offers a model of how to make music theory not only accessible but vital." --David Hajdu, Civilization
"Vibrantly written...an encouragement to listen, to think, and to keep faith." --Chris Waddington, New Orleans Times-Picayune
