Product Information
Gene Lees, author of the highly acclaimed Singers and the Song , offers, in Meet Me at Jim & Andy's , another tightly integrated collection of essays about postwar American music. This time he focuses on major jazz instrumentalists and bandleaders. In a vivid series of portraits, Lees introduces the clientele of Jim & Andy's, one of the most popular New York musicians' haunts in the sixties. This unforgettable gallery of individualists included Duke Ellington, Artie Shaw, Woody Herman, Art Farmer, Billy Taylor, Gerry Mulligan, and Paul Desmond among many others. Lees, himself a noted songwriter, writes about these musicians with vividness and intimacy. Far from being the inarticulate jazz musicians of legend, they turn out to be eloquent indeed as the inventors of a colorful slang that has passed into the American language.

Reviews
"What makes Lees' observations on the music so fascinating is his abilityto use his musical knowledge (as a singer and songwriter) in a way which helpsilluminate the music he is talking about....[This book] leaves the reader with awarm feeling for the musicians and their contributions to the art."--Coda, "Lees writes about jazz with comparable taste and sensitivity--and he does so from the unique perspective of the insider looking out. In so doing, he has contributed another essential volume to the slender shelf of first-rate writing about jazz."--Commentary, "Lees covers his subjects with frankness, affection, and 0 sitivity....The essays are full of keen perceptions and intriguing information."--The Cleveland Plain Dealer, "This is one of the best books ever written on jazz musicians. I hope you keep it in print forever."--Brian Torff, Fairfield Univ., "A wise, learned man who knows his subject from the inside, Lees is in the great tradition of essayists who listens, observes and analyses, but always with understanding and love."--The Stage and Television Today (UK), "Lees writes about jazz with comparable taste and sensitivity--and he doesso from the unique perspective of the insider looking out. In so doing, he hascontributed another essential volume to the slender shelf of first-rate writingabout jazz."--Commentary, "Filled with perceptive observations and richly entertaining tales of the jazz scene....Wit and insight abound in this very readable book."--The Washington Times, "...story is told by Gene Lees in a relaxed and friendly way...but in away the musicians write the book as they recall engaging stories of how it was.First published in 1988, a welcome jazz paperback publication."--Sophia Nitrate,Beat Scene, "...story is told by Gene Lees in a relaxed and friendly way...but in a way the musicians write the book as they recall engaging stories of how it was.
