Did you have to be good at everything, Wynton?Reviewed by Avi Y. Israel, 2009-01-02
This book is an ingenious portrayal, not only of the Jazz greats, but of the writer, Mr. Marsalis. When you read this book, you don't just learn something about jazz; if you really dig it, you can feel the music and start to tap your feet. Marsalis doesn't just tell about music in this book - he makes it.
