tonym Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 ..the book I want. My boss kindly gave me £20 of book tokens for this half term. Now I haven't actually sat and read a book since the birth of my son in 2001 , partly because it was one of those activities that I 'could' give up, some others simply couldn't go. So anyway, I'm looking for Donald Maggin's 'A Life In Jazz' and can I hell find it. So never mind, I'll buy something else. So is it going to be 'Straight Life' or a book about Bill Evans which someone could recommend for me. Thing is, I know if I get the Art Pepper book, I'll want to go and get all those albums I'm missing and that's not going to happen for a while, whereas a good Evans book will complement my decent collection of his music. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzmoose Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 I just got around to reading Straight Life last year, and I highly recommend it. It's a great read, even without the music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
