註釋This autobiography of Red Callender, one of the most exciting and prolific musical figures of this century, presents an intimate portrait of a musician whose career spans almost the entire history of recorded jazz. Weaving Callender's stream-of-consciousness recollections into a chronological narrative, the volume describes his association with artists such as Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday, Charlie Parker, Erroll Garner, Art Tatum and Charles Mingus. It also tells how he has revived interest in the tuba as a jazz instrument, and how, as a composer and arranger, he has performed with and written for bands, choral groups, Hollywood films, television series, and rock'n' roll bands, and of the large following he has in Britain, the U.S., Japan, Australia, Europe and the Soviet Union. The volume also provides a comprehensive survey of jazz in California and of Callender's musical theories. ISBN 0-7043-2507-1: 13.95.
