The Horn, Life of Yardbird Parker,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Horn (Paperback)
I read The Horn about 20 years ago now and interviewed Mr. Holmes at the University of Arkansas. This is a great read for the enthusiasm of the Beats for bebop jazz and jazz's connection with the whole Beat movement. As a student assigned to interview the university's resident Beat writer, I paid a visit to Mr. Holmes and drank a six-pack of beer and spent the afternoon and early evening with Mr. Holmes who talked more about Kerouac and Ginsberg than himself. He referred to Kerouac as a genius, and was exceptionally modest and considerate. However, I think his work stands up with the rest of the Beats and is very good. This is my favorite of his books. I find it interesting it's being released as a paperback in 1999. The Beat Generation is being passed to Generation Y.
