Philadelphia: University of Pennsylvania Press, 1989, second paperback printing, xix, 271pp., . This is a firsthand account of the world of black American music told by a man who has been part of that world for 80 years.

In the 1930s he worked in nightclubs and dancehalls with bands, including King Oliver's New Orleans Creole Jazz Band and Marion Hardy's Alabamians, and toured Europe with the Edgar Hayes Orchestra. He also worked with the orchestras of Cecil Scott, Luis Russel, Claude Hopkins, and Joe Garland and started his own Blue Blazers, the Harlem Bands, and Jazz Band.
