six string Posted October 7, 2009 Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 A few weeks ago I found a copy of Rat Race Blues The Musical Life of Gigi Gryce by Noal Cohen and Michael Fitzgerald. I read about the book here but unfortunately the thread was old and the book was oop at the publisher's. I dropped into Moe's Books on Telegraph in Berkeley after hitting Amoeba's (natch) with the slim hope that they might have a used copy. I was pleasantly surprised to find a new copy and it was $2.00 below the list price on the cover. Score! It's very good and the details through interviews and other print is amazing. It seems to be a true labor of love by the authors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave James Posted October 7, 2009 Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 John Broven's Record Makers and Breakers; Voices of the Independent Rock 'n' Roll Pioneers. Up over and out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Beat Steve Posted October 7, 2009 Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 John Broven's Record Makers and Breakers; Voices of the Independent Rock 'n' Roll Pioneers. Up over and out. Me too. Based on a mention in a recent thread here. Am really looking forward to that one. And then Amazon has received orders for more from me that should be on their way to me by now: - The Music and Life of Theodore Fats Navarro: Infatuation (Leif Bo Petersen) - Come In and Hear the Truth: Jazz and Race on 52nd Street (Patrick Burke) - How Britain Got the Blues: The Transmission and Reception of American Blues Style in the United Kingdom (Roberty F. Schwartz) (again further to a link in a recent thread here) - Country: The Twisted Roots or Rock'n'Roll (Nick Tosches) - Blue Rhythm. Six Lives In Rhythm & Blues (Chif Deffaa) - Unsung Heroes of Rock 'n' Roll: The Birth of Rock in the Wild Years Before Elvis (Nick Tosches) (long overdue but that's how it is sometimes ....) - Group Harmony: The Black Urban Roots of Rhythm & Blues (Stuart L. Goosman) Looks like a long reading winter ... In the meantime I'll try hard to extend my bookshelves in my music room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just shipped with some other Fantasy sale cds. $4.95 in paperback. That sounds like my next music book purchase. I've been buying/listening to his music a lot for the last three or four years partyly due to a book I read on West Coast Jazz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
