Goin’ to Kansas City

June 11, 2019
Book cover of Goin' To Kansas City.

Goin’ to Kansas City by Nathan W. Pearson Jr.
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Of appeal to a niche audience at this point. I’m in that niche.

Many of the performers mentioned in this book were still alive when became a jazz lover and I was fortunate to get to hear them. I enjoyed the addition of context to my memories of them performing late in their careers.
