 Local Description2002, Second edition. A near fine copy only marked by very superficial edge rubbing of the wraps. DescriptionA jazz legend shares his life in a story as lyrical as his music A legend on both the clarinet and the soprano saxophone, one of the most brilliant exponents of New Orleans jazz, Sidney Bechet (1897-1959) played with such fellow jazz legends as Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Charlie Parker, and Jelly Roll Morton. Here is his vivid story written in his own words. Expressive, frank, and hilarious, this classic in jazz literature re-creates a man, a music, and an era. |
