Review :
"Marian McPartland is that rare combination, a first rank jazz musician who also can write about her music, its milieu and musicians...[She] writes with wit, acumen, and vivacity." -- "San Diego Union Tribune" "This is an audio treasure...It's clear that it's been a joyful life as McPartland reads essays and remembrances over the decades--her joie de vivre and true immersion in jazz and its great artists come through loud and clear...the overall effect is like being invited to tea or bourbon with a savvy, kind, and talented lady of the arts." -- "AudioFile" "She has done her studying from the inside: as one of the few working jazz musicians to write about the music with any frequency, she offers a perspective on the men and women who play jazz for a living that seldom finds its way into print." -- "New York Times"
