"Music Outside" captures the spirit, optimism and creativity of contemporary jazz in Britain in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Ian Carr, jazz trumpeter, bandleader and writer, was an important part of the action as well as a sharp observer of it. The book profiles all the leading British contemporary jazz musicians of the time, and includes in-depth interviews with Mike Westbrook, Jon Hiseman, John Stevens, Trevor Watts, Evan Parker, Mike Gibbs and Chris McGregor.
