GUEST,Big Al Whittle What music biographies have you enjoyed? (65* d) RE: What music biographies have you enjoyed? 10 May 16


We Called it Music by Eddie Condon started the journey for me. My mum bought it for me from the remaindered bin in Woolworths when I was fifteen. over fifty years ago.
A picareseque adventure through America with a great guitarist encountering Bix Beiderbecke, Al Capone. Bessie Smith etc.

Any other biography you can get of Bix is worth looking at. The Sudhalters, Jean Paul Lyon, etc. they all help
