In its own way, Tulsa, Oklahoma, proudly stands shoulder to shoulder with some of America's largest cities in its broad influence across multiple music genres. But exactly what is the Tulsa Sound? And how have numerous people from that city in northeastern Oklahoma contributed to this rhythm of life that is known as music? Elven Lindblad embarked on a journey to answer those questions. What was discovered along the way created not only the eBook Tulsa Sounds but also a heightened knowledge and appreciation of Tulsa's contributions to music around the world. Don't be surprised if this detailed, yet entertaining book does the same for you. Drawing on his five decades of experience in research and writing, Lindblad tells not only the stories about people from Tulsa involved in the evolution of American music but presents fascinating facts and little-known tidbits about other places and events. Jazz icon Louis Armstrong once said, "Music is life itself." Tulsa Sounds is a celebration of both.
