[AllenLowe]

David Schiff's book, The Ellington Century.

it's not all bad, but it just goes from insightful to banal it about 6.3 seconds.

but don't take my word for it; read it and find out -

only $10 plus media shipping (figure $4) in the USA

my paypal, if you've made it this far, is alowe5@maine.rr.com

I hope it's not as bad as the wire service copy where a hapless writer referred to "Lush LIfe" as being a popular Ellington theme song. I'll take your word for it and pass.

it has real flashes of insight; but it reads like a text book.
