It's an enthralling, free-flowing, but shapely compound of reminiscences and of observations on music."), and "New York Magazine" ("Something of a miracle, a book that actually explores the life and development of a living musician by dealing seriously with important musical issues. Each chapter sets a biographical context for a conversation . . . a fascinating and valuable book.").In addition
