No jazz reporting to share in this issue, so how about some Beat writing in Playboy instead? Jack Kerouac, "The Rumbling, Rambling Blues."

Playboy, January 1958.

From the next issue (OCT.57). An ad for a Playboy Records compilation of the previous year's (1956) poll winners. Says something about the readership's taste. Major records from Art Blakey, Mingus, Sonny Rollins, and Max Roach that year.
