Description

The Jazz LifeThe last few years have witnessed an enormous resurgence in the popularity of jazz, after some lean times in the sixties when many potential jazz fans turned to rock. Now the pendulum is on the backswing, and vintage and modern jazz as well as "jazz rock" are attracting huge new audiences. One factor involved in the comeback of jazz among blacks and whites alike is the rise of black consciousness, with its search for roots in the American experience.

The last few years have witnessed an enormous resurgence in the popularity of jazz, after some lean times in the sixties when many potential jazz fans turned to rock. Now the pendulum is on the backswing, and vintage and modern jazz as well as "jazz rock" are attracting huge new audiences. One factor involved in the comeback of jazz among blacks and whites alike is the rise of black consciousness, with its search for roots in the American experience. Nat Hentoff's The Jazz Life explores the social, economic, and psychological elements that make up the context of modern jazz. Among the jazz greats whose lives and work are discussed are Count Basie, Charles Mingus, John Lewis, Miles Davis, Thelonius Monk, and Ornette Coleman. Written with intelligence, passion, and wit, this jazz classic is of immense importance to anyone wanting a better understanding of the jazz--or indeed our American life.

Great lotion with great fragrance
Scent: Fresh Mint, Size: 13.2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This lotion feels so good on my skin and the smell is perfume, but soft. I love the smell! If you are sensitive to perfumes, this may not be for you.

A lightweight lotion with a pleasant scent
Scent: Mellow Coconut, Size: 13.2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is a lightweight lotion that absorbs well and leaves my skin silky soft for several hours afterwards. The scent is pretty and 'mellow', just like the name says, and it lasts almost as long as the moisturized feeling. Some fragrances give me a headache, but this one doesn’t, and it’s light enough that other people don’t notice it until they get close to me. The one withheld star is for the lack of upfront transparency about the ingredients. I am allergic to several chemicals that are common in skincare products, so it's very important to me to be able to see what I'm buying before I spend money on a personal care product that can’t be returned, and I know I’m far from the only person who has this problem. This is the complete list of ingredients, as shown on the back of the box: Water, Glycerin, Isopropyl Myristate, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Cetearyl Alcohol, 1,2-Hexanediol, C14-22 Alcohols, Dimethicone, Fragrance, Ceramide NP, Saccharomyces/Rice Ferment Filtrate, Sodium DNA, Dipropylene Glycol, Glyceryl Stearate, Sorbitan Olivate, C12-20 Alkyl Glucoside, Butylene Glycol, Cetearyl Olivate, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Cetyl Palmitate, Acrylates/ C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Tromethamine, Sorbitan Palmitate, Potassium Cetyl Phosphate, Isopropyl Palmitate, Panthenol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Fruit Extract, Disodium EDTA, Pentylene Glycol, Polyglyceryl-10 Oleate, Glucose, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Propylene Glycol, Hexyl Cinnamal, Limonene, Benzyl Salicylate, Coumarin, Linalool
