Recenzii
In the tradition of the best jazz autobiographies...a fascinating travelogue through the jazz world, filled with vivid images of Gene Krupa, Stan Kenton, Roy Eldridge and Billie Holiday...Her prose is as hip as her music.
A valuable, revealing, and read-at-a-gulp account of a premier American artist and the punishing winds that shaped her life and her craft.
A remarkably truthful book
There's a pithy edge to Ms. Day's narrative, a certain comical 'give 'em hell' combativeness that shines through the book's many dark moments.
The record of [the] early years is like the story of the music itself; rich, exciting, innovative; featuring the primitive beauty of the twenties when one foot was still in showbiz; the thirties with hip sophistication and hard swinging for hard times; the explosive forties of pre-war big band bashes and post-war bop; and then the fifties, going off in a hundred directions with a needle in the arm...it is the best jazz autobiography I've ever read.
This no-holds-barred account of Anita's career ups and downs, drug fables, romantic interludes, and musical tales is fascinating reading.
