An informal though authoritative history of jazz, Taylor heard through the piano, combining his firsthand knowledge both as a musician and as an "aural historian." He begins by tracing jazz' roots to the African tradition, disputing Andre Hodier's popular theory that early jazz rhythms were derived from military marches and polkas, which black musicians might have heard in the 1800s. He follows the chronology through the rags of Scott Joplin and Eubie Blake, the New Orleans jazz of Jelly Roll Morton, the stride piano of Fats Waller and James P. Johnson, on up through Count Basie, Thelonious Monk, Cecil Taylor, McCoy Tyner and Keith Jarrett.
