O tym produkcie
Product Information
Louis Armstrong has been the subject of countless biographies and music histories. Yet scant attention has been paid to the remarkable array of writings he left behind. Louis Armstrong: In His Own Words introduces readers to a little-known facet of this master trumpeter, band leader, and entertainer. Based on extensive research through the Armstrong archives, this important volume includes some of his earliest letters, personal correspondence with one of his first biographers in 1943-44, autobiographical writings, magazine articles, and essays. Here are Armstrong's own thoughts on his life and career--from poverty in New Orleans to playing in the famous cafes, cabarets, and saloons of Storyville, from his big break in 1922 with the King Oliver band to his storming of New York, from his breaking of color barriers in Hollywood to the infamous King of the Zulus incident in 1949, and finally, to his last days in Queens, New York. Along the way Armstrong recorded touching portraits of his times and offered candid, often controversial, opinions about racism, marijuana, bebop, and other jazz artists such as Jelly Roll Morton and Coleman Hawkins. Indeed, these writings provide a balanced portrait of his life as a musician, entertainer, civil rights activist, and cultural icon. Armstrong's idiosyncratic use of language and punctuation have been preserved to give the reader an unvarnished portrayal of this compelling artist. This volume also includes introductions to the writings, as well as an annotated index of names and places significant to Armstrong's life.

"Provides new insight into the musician's life--much more than what mostprevious biographies..."--Black Issues Book Review, Louis Armstrong, In His Own Words is essential reading on the life of thislegendary figure and the early jazz scene."--Down Beat, "A fascinating collection of the unpublished writings of jazz trailblazerArmstrong, perhaps the most prolific writer among the jazz greats.... Theserevealing letters and writings give readers a fascinating glimpse intoArmstrong's early musical influences, rise to fame, life on the road, role inthe Civil Rights movement, and final years. Carefully preserving Armstrong'sidiosyncratic style and adding previously unpublished photos, Brothersilluminates the character and times of a jazz icon."--Library Journal, "This book is like a long visit to Louis Armstrong's house in Queens.... Delightful and revealing.... By itself, this book explains why Louis Armstrong was by far the greatest and warment communicator jazz shall ever know."--George Avakian, jazz record producer"A fascinating collection of the unpublished writings of jazz trailblazer Armstrong, perhaps the most prolific writer among the jazz greats.... These revealing letters and writings give readers a fascinating glimpse into Armstrong's early musical influences, rise to fame, life on the road, role in the Civil Rights movement, and final years. Carefully preserving Armstrong's idiosyncratic style and adding previously unpublished photos, Brothers illuminates the character and times of a jazz icon."--Library Journal"Louis Armstrong was a wonderful writer, vivid and candid, but until now his most personal reflections were known only to researchers. Thomas Brothers has superbly collected them in an entertaining volume that will prove indispensable to anyone who wants to understand the genius who transformed American music."--Gary Giddins, author of Visions of Jazz"Engrossing...adds vitally to our knowledge of one of the greatest twentieth-century Americans."--Booklist"Armstrong would be 'tickled pink' to know that Thomas Brothers has really done his homework adn cracked the code of Armstrong's special variety of scat and jive, and, more importantly, that Brothers has put [Armstrong's] words to paper just as he wrote them."--The Bloomsbury Review, "By his own account, Armstrong was a singer even before he played the horn. His richly human timbre can be heard here in every typed or handwritten phrase."--Tom Nolan, San Francisco Chronicle, "Louis Armstrong was a wonderful writer, vivid and candid, but until now his most personal reflections were known only to researchers. Thomas Brothers has superbly collected them in an entertaining volume that will prove indispensable to anyone who wants to understand the genius whotransformed American music."--Gary Giddins, author of Visions of Jazz, "In the nearly three decades since Louis Armstrong's death, our understanding of this stupendously accomplished and influential artist has both broadened and deepened, a process that should be significantly accelerated by the publication of this selection of his written work." "It is aremarkable book, taking us inside the heart and head of the man in ways that, until now, inly the music had done. It reveals him, among many things, as a person of strong and fiercely independent opinions..." "He was also smart, self-confident, ambitious, hard-working and conscientious, and in thebargain may have been the ultimate senualist, taking his pleasure where he found it and reveling in every moment of it. He gave joy to millions because he was joyful--full of joy--himself, as almost every word of this book attests."--Jonathan Yardley, The Washington Post, "A fascinating collection of the unpublished writings of jazz trailblazer Armstrong, perhaps the most prolific writer among the jazz greats.... These revealing letters and writings give readers a fascinating glimpse into Armstrong's early musical influences, rise to fame, life on the road,role in the Civil Rights movement, and final years. Carefully preserving Armstrong's idiosyncratic style and adding previously unpublished photos, Brothers illuminates the character and times of a jazz icon."--Library Journal, "Brothers...is a skillful and sensitive editor, and though some of the pieces he includes have previously seen print, this is the first time they have appeared in authoritative texts in which Armstrong's flavorful orthographic peculiarities are scrupulously preserved. The only things wrongwith Louis Armstrong, In His Own Words are that it does not contain more letters and is not twice as long."The New York Times Book Review, "This book is like a long visit to Louis Armstrong's house in Queens....

By itself, this book explains why Louis Armstrong was by far the greatest and warment communicator jazz shall ever know."--George Avakian, jazz record producer "A fascinating collection of the unpublished writings of jazz trailblazer Armstrong, perhaps the most prolific writer among the jazz greats....
