Dennis Owsley has won a 2007 Association for Recorded Sound Collections Award for Excellence in Historical Recorded Sound Research. Owsley, who hosts Jazz Unlimited on KWMU (90.7 FM) Sunday evenings from 9:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m., earned a Certificate of Merit in the Best Research in Recorded Jazz Music category for his book City of Gabriels: The History of Jazz in St. Louis, 1895–1973.
The ARSC Awards for Excellence in Historical Recorded Sound Research are presented annually to authors and publishers of books, articles, liner notes, and monographs, to recognize outstanding published research in the field of recorded sound.
If you'd like to browse a bit of City of Gabriels, the index, table of contents, epilogue and a couple of chapters can be viewed on line via Google Books. (And a tip 'o the StLJN cap to commenter godoggo for pointing that out.) Copies of the book are also still available for purchase from Amazon.
