I loved this book. Anytime you combine music and history, sign me up. I just find it a fascinating subject to read about, and this story was no different. It was a no holds barred look into the life of a musician who broke boundaries, and musical genres. Through his eyes, we saw the highs and the lows of the jazz age and the racism that his band mate experienced and all the crazy in-between. I highly recommend this. The narrator was pleasant and kept me interested without zoning out. Well done.
