The Beginning

Initially, I planned to include my work on a novel based on the life of Don Drummond
on Jazz First (jazzofonik1.blogspot.com), my principal blog. But then, the thought, why not create a blog just for the project?

So here it is

Keep checking back and follow my progress from though to book

and feel free to add your own inputs

Thanks

I might suggest writing a book on the Skatalites as a whole actually. Don't think there is a full and complete book strictly on the Skatalites.

At least you might include Rico and write about the 2 greatest Trombonists from the little island in the sun.

Think about the opportunities to link them together as 2 sides of the same coin - one lost way too early with plenty of more to contribute and one that has gone on to show what the other might have been capable of attaining in a majestic career that has spanned decades. I know I'd buy a copy of either or both those books!

I think the story can write itself.

Keep up the blog and looking forward to updates on the progress.

Respect!
