marcello Posted July 14, 2015 Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 I bought the book. It has really great photos. Les has a good eye! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlhoots Posted July 14, 2015 Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 Some examples in the new issue of Wax Poetics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 I recommend McCann's Night Music album Les Is More. It's a collection of his own personal recordings, not all of them of his own performances, and it suggests that his ear was as perceptive as his eye.
