I'm sure I posted this once before, but I can't find it so here it is again: Gary Giddins' Post-War Jazz: An Arbitrary Roadmap. "If you want to play, you have to abide by the rules, mainly one big rule: A musician may be listed only once as a leader." Naturally there is quite a bit here that is familiar, but it is nice to be reminded of those tracks. Where this is really useful is in sugesting jumping off points for those artist with whose work I am less familiar.
