Recenzii
"[A] total and contagious awe for one of jazz's greatest composers. Lavezzoli's interviews afford vivid behind-the-scenes details." --Publishers Weekly
"Inspired by the lyrics of Stevie Wonder's 1976 hit "Sir Duke," this work contains an interesting and controversial mix of material....presenting Ellington through the work of stylistically dissimilar musicians forces the reader to listen to Ellington with new ears." --Library Journal
"Peter Lavezzoli has written a fine book about Duke Ellington, one that will find a home in many libraries and homes. The King of All, Sir Duke: Ellington and the Artistic Revolution reveals the wonder that was Duke Ellington. In addition to an excellent foreword, there is a section detailing Ellington, followed by selections concerning individuals touched in some way by Ellington. If you read only one jazz book this year, please make this the one you decide to read! A truly remarkable book. You can feel the man behind the legend, and you can fully comprehend what a great American talent and genius Duke Ellington was, and remains." -www.jazzreview.com
"A labor of love." --JazzTimes
