Publisher's Synopsis
"Jazz Sketches" provides a fresh view with a compendium of the author's first-hand encounters as a jazz fan. Sub-titled, "Musical musings on the mother lode," the book light-heartedly pays tribute to the author's favorite music and musicians. A former US Army bandsman, King came close to pursuing his musical dream, but fell short as revealed in the book. Ironic details fuel King's 50-year trip. Read it and smile along. Or send it as a jazz "greeting card.""The experiences are personal, and worth sharing." --- Roger Atkinson JAM Kansas City Jazz Ambassadors Magazine
