Retracing the life of Paul Bley--one of the most complex and mysterious personalities in the history of jazz--this fascinating biography positions him in the pantheon of great jazz musicians from the last 50 years. A proponent of free jazz and improvisation, his techniques, aesthetic values, and individual style are examined in the context of his contributions to modern jazz.
