Reviews

"Lenny Breau was, and will always be, a great treasure. We need him today more than ever." - Mundell Lowe, jazz guitarist "In his brilliantly written and exhaustively researched biography, Forbes-Roberts gets to the essence of the creative process itself and the meaning of what it is to be an underappreciated genius." - Bill Milkowski, author of Jaco: The Extraordinary and Tragic Life of Jaco Pastorius"
