Art Pepper was described as the greatest alto-saxophonist of the
post-Charlie Parker generation. Straight Life, originally narrated
on tape to his wife Laurie, is an explosive work chronicling his
work amidst a life dealing with alcoholism, heroin addiction, armed
robberies and imprisonment. The result is an autobiography like no
other, a masterpiece of the spoken word, shaped into a genuine work
of literature.
Art Pepper (1925-1982) was called the greatest alto saxophonist of
the post-Charlie Parker generation. But his autobiography,
"Straight Life," is much more than a jazz book--it is one of the
most explosive, yet one of the most lyrical, of all
autobiographies. This edition is updated with an extensive
afterword by Laurie Pepper covering Art Pepper's last years, and a
complete and up-to-date discography by Todd Selbert.
