jmjk Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Does anyone remember the author and title of a book with a photo of Jackie McLean on the dust jacket? It was the same photo as the A Fickle Sonance album cover and it was published around 2001-2002. As I recall, it wasn't a book on jazz, but rather, maybe something sociological?

jmjk Posted August 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 I think that's it. Thanks, Marcelo. Turns out maybe it IS jazz-related. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Derek Ansel's bio also uses the photo - much later published book though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertrand Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 It's a shame Ansell didn't try to interview anyone - I could have hooked him up with Freddie Redd and Butch Warren. Bertrand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesnik Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 I've got that book and it's a good read. And it IS jazz related, though also very strongly biased towards esthetics and other things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertrand. yeah , thought the same when I read that book. I was a bit disappointed. Like the Hank Mobley book from about the same time.
