This review is from: Sweet Man, the Real Duke Ellington (Hardcover)

After he finished writing this book he compared himself with "Grandma Moses"...a brillant songwriter...who knew all the great singers and all the great singers knew him...best bio on Duke and was a bestseller in England...BUT never got any book reviews for this bio in the U.S.A.

They will both be missed ... Duke and his songwriter DON GEORGE, the author of this book.
