Jade Visions
is the first biography of one of the twentieth century's most
influential jazz musicians, bassist Scott LaFaro. Best known for his
landmark recordings with Bill Evans, LaFaro played bass a mere seven
years before his life and career were tragically cut short by an
automobile accident when he was only 25 years old. Told by his sister,
this book uniquely combines family history with insight into LaFaro's
music by well-known jazz experts and musicians Gene Lees, Don Thompson,
Jeff Campbell, Phil Palombi, Chuck Ralston, Barrie Kolstein, and Robert
Wooley. Those interested in Bill Evans, the history of jazz, and the
lives of working musicians of the time will appreciate this exploration
of LaFaro’s life and music as well as the feeling they’ve been invited
into the family circle as an intimate.
