Shadowing Dizzy Gillespie: 100th Birthday Anniversary (B&W Edition)

David G Brown, White Hurricane

[B&W edition. 37 photographs.] In celebration of Dizzy Gillespie’s 100th birthday, author David G. Brown (Deacon’s Crossbow) shares his intimate experiences and memoirs of this humanitarian, innovator, and magical musician. After a chance meeting in Georgetown, 1985, Brown had the opportunity to spend countless hours with Dizzy at performances, testimonials, all-night card-playing sessions, hotels, restaurants, and street corners.Mr. Brown said, Without question, the most remarkable man I have ever met. We shared tears and gut-busting laughs that are etched in my mind forever. God bless John Birks ‘Dizzy’ Gillespie, who, by the way, wasn’t dizzy at all.

Along with a book-load of anecdotes, there are select and unique photos spread throughout.
