by William Zinsser


Review this book!

In this bio of acclaimed jazz duo Mitchell and Ruff, Zinsser, a colleague of Ruff's at Yale University, reveals what he witnessed when he toured with the pair all over the world to record their thoughts about music. As an avid listener, he learned much about the musicians' childhood memories, early inspirations, working habits, and creative evolution--all of which he shares in this account.

Media Reviews

"Using long, direct quotations, Zinsser's biography captures the voices of these two remarkable men, while deftly situating their lives in context. The result is a highly infectious, Studs Terkel-like chronicle about the unorthodox development of two distinguished musicians."
