Gene's been a Torontonian for four decades, adding his wide experience to our music scene. He has a fantastic memory, and has prepared his memoirs with writer Jack Batten, a long-time Toronto jazz critic. And you can read it for free! I've just been through the first few chapters and it seems that we're just sitting at a table and chatting. Here's Gene's invitation: Over the years so many of you have asked when I was going to write a book. Well a memoir has now been written about my life and times and music by the wonderful Jack Batten. I spoke. He wrote. And now I have put it on the web through WATTPAD. The Book is called "I Can Hear the Music, The Life and Times of Gene DiNovi". In addition to Jack's eloquent prose, it includes many memorable photographs from my personal collection.
