Review:

Dyer's best book, even if you have no interest in jazz or a slight aversion, it makes you want to listen 
to the music. He has imagined scenes from the lives of the great players and although that sounds 
naff, it works surprisingly well to illuminate the lives of the artists. I'm off to birdland now.
