The transformation of black music : the rhythms, the songs, and the ships of the African diaspora / Samuel A. Floyd, Jr., with Melanie L. Zeck and Guthrie P. Ramsey, Jr.
The Transformation of Black Music includes a full spectrum of black musics from four continents as it argues for a re-codification of black musics and performers. Framed by a call and response argument, the authors present not only a more holistic and historically accurate understanding of musics in the African Diaspora, but also an intellectually robust future for the field of black music research.
