The legendary autobiography of junkie jazz genius Art Pepper has never been published as an audio book. The surviving author intends to remedy that by reading it aloud, a few pages at a time. Until she completes the reading or drops dead. There will be occasional music bonuses and clarifying commentaries not available in the print edition. A NEW EPISODE EVERY SUNDAY.
Episode One; "My grandmother was a strong person. She was a solid German lady. And she never would intentionally have hurt anyone, but she was cold, very cold and unfeeling. She was married at first to my father's father and had two sons, and when he died she remarried. And the man that she married liked her son Richard and didn't like my father whose name was Arthur, the same as mine."
