A must read for all dedicated jazz fans!James A. Cox, Midwest Book ReviewThis book differs in every sense. Instead of the usual narrative format, she opted for turning the story into a screenplay. But this one is certainly different and makes for an entertaining read. Quirky departures from the norm add to the enjoymentRonald Atkins, UK Jazz JournalJohnson perfectly captures the tone, tenor and language of the mid-century jazz musician.

While at Wilberforce University Freeman played trumpet in Wilberforce Collegians Jazz Band.Other HBCUs had jazz bands - Howard University had the Howard Swingmasters, Alabama State University had the Bama State Collegians.
