cool_blue Posted February 28, 2005 Report Posted February 28, 2005 I am looking for a few hardcover jazz photography books. Picking on Ebay seem slim, anyone know where else i can get these ? Many, many Thanks Quote
brownie Posted February 28, 2005 Report Posted February 28, 2005 How about Amazon? The Wolff: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/084...1255252-8823058 The Claxton: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detai...=glance&s=books Good luck! Quote
cool_blue Posted February 28, 2005 Author Report Posted February 28, 2005 Yah seen those. The Claxton is 3-5 weeks to ship. that just doesnt sound right. I like to use small stores first if i can. Quote
Dmitry Posted February 28, 2005 Report Posted February 28, 2005 I'm surprised Claxton's "Jazz Seen" folio is hard to find. It used to be ubiquitous in places like Tower and Virgin, inexpensive for such a large book, about $25 or so. Is it out of print? Quote
brownie Posted February 28, 2005 Report Posted February 28, 2005 (edited) The Claxton 'Jazz Seen' is still very visible here. I'll be waiting for Claxton's next book (due in May or June), a very big and pretty expensive one: http://www.booksamillion.com/ncom/books?pi...30666&ad=BZTBKS Edited February 28, 2005 by brownie Quote

Brownie, are you referring to the one coming out by Taschen? I spoke to Claxton's people and they said it's nice!!! Can't wait! Mark Quote

Mark Mark, mais oui! There is a Taschen store not very far from my place and I drop in from time to time to see if that new Claxton book has showed up. Heard good things about it but want to have a first look at it! Quote
neveronfriday Posted March 1, 2005 Report Posted March 1, 2005 The Making of Jazz Life on the Taschen Website. The book itself on the Taschen website. I have the original (mine is quite a tattered copy), so I'll probably get the new one as well. Cheers! Quote
cool_blue Posted March 1, 2005 Author Report Posted March 1, 2005 (edited) Anyone know how differnt the content is in the new SOFTCOVER version thats out ?? Origional Hardcover: Are both required or is it just a softcover version of the first ? New Softcover: Edited March 1, 2005 by cool_blue Quote

Origional Hardcover: Are both required or is it just a softcover version of the first ? New Softcover: Those are 2 different books. You need both (IMHO). Edited March 1, 2005 by jlhoots Quote

Our local Half-Price stores carry these books, usually at a nice discount, and they are hard to resist. This one caught my attention on the weekend! How come I missed this stuff in the 50s?? The graphics are just amazing ... http://www.taschen.com/pages/en/catalogue/...facts/03815.htm Quote
Adam Posted March 2, 2005 Report Posted March 2, 2005 Taschen Books is a wonderful press. Can't wait for the Claxton. Quote
