From the publisher: "A memoir of life in post-WWII New York, of the West Coast music scene during the heyday of pop recording sessions, of law practice in 'small town' Los Angeles, and the denizens of these worlds. The author is a musician and attorney who has studied with Leonard Rose and Pierre Monteux, performed with Pierre Boulez, recorded with Frank Sinatra and toured with Frank Zappa. He provides an up-close view of such diverse subjects as life in the recording studios and concert halls, an attorney's daily dealings with clients and courts, and a blow-by-blow description of the pitfalls and pratfalls of adult dating at the beginning of the 21st Century. By turns nostalgic, uplifting and amusing, the author tells his story, and the stories of those whose paths have crossed his, with a clear eye and an engaging, often tongue-in-cheek style.". 1st ed?
