Although John Chilton has worked as a trumpeter with dixieland, swing and mainstream groups, it is as an author that he is most significant. Chilton's Who's Who of Jazz contains many previously unknown details about jazz musicians born before 1920. His many other works include one of the great jazz biographies (Sidney Bechet: The Wizard of Jazz) and books on Louis Armstrong (Salute to Satchmo), Billie Holiday (Billie's Blues), Bob Crosby's Bob Cats (Stomp Off, Let's Go) and Coleman Hawkins. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi
