Art Tatum, a guide to his recorded music / Arnold Laubich, Ray Spencer  [Newark, N.J.] : Institute of Jazz Studies, Rutgers University ; Metuchen, N.J. : Scarecrow Press, 1982.\n\nI think I remember reading a long time ago that there weren't too many live recordings of Art Tatum. Here are two:\nhttp://www.amazon.com/Art-Tatum-Live-Vol-1934-1944/dp/B000086BBD/sr=8-1/qid=1163495880/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-8021550-4638517?ie=UTF8&s=music\nhttp://www.amazon.com/Live-1945-1949-Vol-Art-Tatum/dp/B00009IC6Y/sr=8-2/qid=1163495880/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2/102-8021550-4638517?ie=UTF8&s=music\n\nOscar Peterson, on the other hand, may still be the most recorded jazz musician of all time, the peak of his career being the late 50s/early 60s. The most complete discography I can find is at\nhttp://www.jazzdisco.org/peterson/cat/\nMy personal live favorites of his are The Russia Concert and Live in Paris\nhttp://www.amazon.com/Russia-Oscar-Peterson/dp/B000000XNW/sr=8-1/qid=1163496922/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-8021550-4638517?ie=UTF8&s=music\nBoth recordings include solo, duo and trio pieces.\n\nNot much I know about Max Roach other than that he played drums with Charlie Parker, and had a few famous recordings with Buddy Rich that I think were referred to as 'drum wars.' Here's a comprehensive discography:\nhttp://www.jazzdisco.org/max/dis/c/\n\n________________________

You need to get to a university library with a music program.  They will have subscriptions to article databases like RILM, Music Index, and IIMP.  There are thousands of articles indexed there.  Also, Google scholar will find some of the articles.  But not like the real thing.

A site that might be able to help you is pandora.com  I love this site.  You can type in a musical artist and it will bring up other people that play the same style of music or sound similar to them.  It has allowed me to find some really great artists.

Go to a tourist attraction in the city, or nearby city.  It's something most locals don't normally attend.  Then hang out at a cafe and find out more about the person.  If there is an event that is going on, then head to that.

The best place to go for musical information is Allmusic.com. If you know the name of the album, that would be the best place to start. Its address is http:www.allmusic.com.

I to am a fan of the jazz genre. I have read that there are 12 differ ant forms of jazz. I prefer the older based material like the stuff you mentioned. Miles Davis, John Coltrane and Sonny Rollins would be my all time favorites in jazz. My suggestion to you would be to go to a CD distributor. Best Buy,Circuit City, Maybe Wal Mart or some independent music outlet. Go to the end of the jazz/blues section. Usually after the Z section, there will be a Compilation/Best of. If you are looking for a smorgasbord of jazz on just a few discs, than I would recommend you do that. Good luck and enjoy!!
