Nina, Te csodás!

Nyár újra..jazz megint...

Most néztem a Historyn T. Monkról egy dokumentumfilmet, amiből többek között kiderült, hogy nagy hatalmas szerelmetes barátság fűzte az egyik Rotschild lányhoz, Pannonica-hoz (Nica). Mire ráeszméltem, hogy hogyan lehet az, hogy ekkora zenészről nincs magyar nyelvű könyv, csupán több oldalas adat jazz, ill. rocktörténeti albumokban??! Hiszen már csak ha belegondolok, hogy micsoda élet kelhetett ahhoz, hogy vki ilyen egyéniség, stílus EMBER legyen a zenében...Kénytelen leszek az amazon-on felkutatni valami angol nyelvű regényt.
