Captures a moment in time,
This review is from: A Time of Music: A Time of Magic (Hardcover)
Touching evocation of a moment in time -- the last days of the Big Bands, the last days of summer at a southern seaside resort. Engaging read. Well drawn, complex characters. Crisp, believable dialogue. Remarkable insight into the workings of a band in action -- fascinating even to a non-musician. Highly recommend.

Hits All the Right Notes,
This review is from: A Time of Music: A Time of Magic (Hardcover)
A great story about the real world of a musician's life on the road, set in the big band era of the South -- and about struggles with alcohol. The characters who inhabit this world, plus the family members "back home," really come to life. I highly recommend.

Great Book!,

This review is from: A Time Of Music, A Time Of Magic (Paperback)
The author really knows his stuff! As a former traveling musician I really enjoyed the behind the scenes look at the band characters. He nailed the various personalities that seem to be in every band no matter what type or era. The way the author addresses the drug/alcohol abuse is right on; enlightening and heart breaking.
A great nostalgia trip to the Big Band era. |
