Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ben Sidran: A Life in the Music (Hardcover)
This is a great read. If you are a Ben Sidran fan you have been waiting for this for years, If you are a music fan you won't be able to put it down and if you like biographies in general you will be interested. Can't lose here! And as an extra special bonus the book comes with a great compilation CD that is worth the price of the book alone!

This review is from: Ben Sidran: A Life in the Music (Hardcover)
Put on the enclosed CD, listen and read and get ready to marvel at the paths Ben Sidran's life has taken. His openness to experience has allowed him to meet, play with, interview and write about musicians from around the world. Ben chronicles his constant battle to stay true to the music, rather than the money or fame.Living in Madison, I have been lucky enough to hear performances by Ben Sidran playing with various musicians who are mentioned in the book. The best is being lucky enough to see him perform with his son, Leo. His joy and pride in sharing the stage with Leo is evident. The jazz history in the book allowed me to put many of my jazz cd's, Sidran's and others, in a context of the flow of jazz history. It also made me proud of Madison, my favorite place to live. |
