An extraordinary collection of revealing, personal interviews with
fourteen jazz music legends During his nearly forty years as a
music journalist, Ralph J. Gleason recorded many in-depth
interviews with some of the greatest jazz musicians of all time.
These informal sessions, conducted mostly in Gleason's Berkeley,
California, home, have never been transcribed and published in full
until now. This remarkable volume, a must-read for any jazz fan,
serious musician, or musicologist, reveals fascinating,
little-known details about these gifted artists, their lives, their
personas, and, of course, their music. Bill Evans discusses his
battle with severe depression, while John Coltrane talks about
McCoy Tyner's integral role in shaping the sound of the Coltrane
quartet, praising the pianist enthusiastically. Included also are
interviews with Dizzy Gillespie, Sonny Rollins, Quincy Jones, Jon
Hendricks, and the immortal Duke Ellington, plus seven more of the
most notable names in twentieth-century jazz.
