Jim Landry was in the music business, to some significant degree, from 1966 until 2012. In Part One, he’ll take you through the theory and his earliest lessons on music. In Part Two, he’ll stress his experience – instrumental performance, road work and studio session time. He’ll describe work done with some of the bands he formed, managed and performed with. We have two subjects from the cusp between theory and instrumental performance involving music production.
Book Review:
“Musicians are, without exaggeration, essentially brilliant, sometimes bordering genius. Yet, we are at the same time somewhat mad. Not angry “crazy.”
Landry fills his book with fascinating stories and details about the music industry and his life on the road. He straightforwardly relates behind-the-scenes antics that are par for the course when talented individuals find themselves in a family consisting of rockers. His love and understanding of music are evident, yet he writes in such a way as to bring non-musicians into the fold, if only in their imaginations. Anyone who has ever wondered what life might be like for those talented enough to make a living in the music industry will find this book mesmerizing, as will those who are rock fans in all its various outlets. The author’s love and knowledge of music and desire to share with his reading audience are at the heart of this work. His book is almost a song in itself, one of nostalgia brimming with the rhythms and beats of one man’s life.
