Paul Desmond Biography


Recommended Posts

It's a wonderful book; full of detailed information about the man and his music. One of the great aspects of the book is Desmond's strong bond with his father, who was a composer, and the reproduction of their letters to each other through the years.

Also, Doug Ramsey's blog site is a nice place to visit on the web:Rifftides

(INQUIRING MINDS WANNA' KNOW :g )

What's the best shipped price around for the Desmond book?

I heard Barnes and Noble has the book for 30% off.

Maybe that's the way to go-probably will be awhile before there are many used mint (reviewers) copies around?.....

I have the book on order from Barnes and Noble. It's on its way. Total cost including express shipping to France is $45!

Amazon.fr had this item at something like $129 (with probably shome shipping added). And that was for one of those 'used mint' copy!

The package was delivered today, three days after I put in my order!

Very impressive :tup

Bad news was the French customs people who decided to add a $20 bill for opening the package and check what was inside :excited:

And me who thought this did not happen with book shipments from the USA!

Had a quick peek at the Ramsey book. Looks mighty awesome. Will read it when I get to southern France later this month!

$31.50 with free shipping in the u.s. from barnes & noble.

Wow- I figured some good deals would come along (after I paid full price), but that borders (no pun intended) on the ridiculous. Anybody who's even the least bit tempted to get this really ought to jump on that offer before they change their mind.
