Title: Music on my mind. The memoirs of an American pianist
Description: MacGibbon & Kee, 1965. Linnen band met stofomslag. Pp: 318. Foreword by Duke Ellington. First English edition, first printing. A palpable bona fide excursion through the dives, cellars speak-easies and brothels out of which sprang much of ragtime, stride, boogie-woogie swing and modern piano, by one of the four great kings of Harlem 'stride' piano, who was also a composer, a mentor, a verbal historian and incongruously, a Hebrew Cantor. One reviewer has described it as "colorful", but the Lion's grit and wit are so much more!. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
