Book excerpt: A visual history of America’s jazz nightclubs of the 1940s and 1950s, featuring exclusive interviews and over 200 souvenir photos. In the two decades before the Civil Rights movement, jazz nightclubs were among the first places that opened their doors to both Black and white performers and club goers in Jim Crow America. In this extraordinary collection, Grammy Award-winning record executive and music historian Jeff Gold looks back at this explosive moment in the history of Jazz and American culture, and the spaces at the center of artistic and social change. Sittin’ In is a visual history of jazz clubs during these crucial decades when some of the greatest names in in the genre—Billie Holiday, Charlie Parker, Ella Fitzgerald, Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Louis Armstrong, Oscar Peterson, and many others—were headlining acts across the country. In many of the clubs, Black and white musicians played together and more significantly, people of all races gathered together to enjoy an evening’s entertainment. House photographers roamed the floor and for a dollar, took picture of patrons that were developed on site and could be taken home in a keepsake folder with the club’s name and logo. Sittin’ In tells the story of the most popular club in these cities through striking images, first-hand anecdotes, true tales about the musicians who performed their unforgettable shows, notes on important music recorded live there, and more. All of this is supplemented by colorful club memorabilia, including posters, handbills, menus, branded matchbooks, and more. Inside you’ll also find exclusive, in-depth interviews conducted specifically for this book with the legendary Quincy Jones; jazz great tenor saxophonist Sonny Rollins; Pulitzer Prize-winning fashion critic Robin Givhan; jazz musician and creative director of the Kennedy Center, Jason Moran; and jazz critic Dan Morgenstern. Gold surveys America’s jazz scene and its intersection with racism during segregation, focusing on three crucial regions: the East Coast (New York, Atlantic City, Boston, Washington, D.C.); the Midwest (Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit, St. Louis, Kansas City); and the West Coast (Los Angeles, San Francisco). This collection of ephemeral snapshots tells the story of an era that helped transform American life, beginning the move from traditional Dixieland jazz to bebop, from conservatism to the push for personal freedom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: <<>> In the world that is of Rob Louis, you will meet characters like Billy the Squid (and his seahorse sidekick Sid). You will be introduced to “Be on Time, Bill” and even take a boat ride through a bowl of vegetable soup. “Pass the carrots, potatoes, and peas, but hold the onions, please.” And when Rob is in his poetry and prose phase, you will find him picking his “knows.” He knows how to make a “boa constrictor cake,” and he knows “never to stand under a blue galoo, for goodness sake!” Some may ask, “Rob, how do you think of such things?” Easy, a little gnome lives in my head. He tells me when it is time for bed. He reminds me to tie my shoes and think goofy things when I am writing too. He tries to catch me when I fall down, and for my birthday, he became a clown. But when my head aches, yes, alas, I put my gnome out on the grass. So if you don’t like prose or poem, don’t blame me; blame the gnome. He probably wrote them because I wasn’t home. So now you know. But why the title of the book Sittin’ in My Garden (Waitin’ for the Jelly Beans to Grow)? Well, mostly because not only are jelly beans my all-time favorite candy, but they are also a fair and favorable representation of the prose and poems herein. Like the jelly beans, my writings are colorful, varied, and capable of either bringing a sweet and new memory or reminding the reader of an old one. Perhaps something from your childhood or maybe your children’s or grandchildren’s childhood. That’s why these poems and prose were written for the young and not so young. For all ages. And not to worry, there is no mentioned politics, religion, nothing sexual or any curse words, just goofy G-rated fun for all. Enjoy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Otis Redding and Steve Cropper's timeless ode to never-ending days is given fresh new life in this heartwarming picture book. Sittin' in the mornin' sun I'll be sittin' when the evening comes Watching the ships roll in Then I'll watch 'em roll away again, yeah (Sittin' on) The Dock of the Bay is a charming picture book set to one of the King of Soul'sTM greatest hits. The song was one of the last Redding recorded, and ranked number four on Billboard's year-end Hot 100 chart, going on to win two GRAMMYs and be certified triple-platinum. With lyrics by Otis Redding and Steve Cropper and illustrations by Kaitlyn Shea O'Connor, this picture book imagines a lonesome cat fishing off a dock and hoping the fish will bite soon. (Sittin' on) The Dock of the Bay is the perfect picture book for parents wanting to share a classic song with their children, allowing both to find joy in it along the way. "What [Otis Redding's] voice conveyed to listeners was an immediate, almost unparalleled connection; he could wring inconceivable intensity and complexity out of a minimal phrase and returned, most often, to the basic, raw power of love." --New York Times The Otis Redding Foundation: Redding was dedicated to improving the quality of life for his community through the education and empowerment of its youth. He provided scholarships and summer music programs which continued until his untimely death on December 10, 1967. Today, the mission of the Otis Redding Foundation, established in 2007 by Mrs. Zelma Redding, is to empower, enrich, and motivate all young people through programs involving music, writing, and instrumentation.

Book excerpt: A memoir-in-essays from disability advocate and creator of the Instagram account @sitting_pretty Rebekah Taussig, processing a lifetime of memories to paint a beautiful, nuanced portrait of a body that looks and moves differently than most. Growing up as a paralyzed girl during the 90s and early 2000s, Rebekah Taussig only saw disability depicted as something monstrous (The Hunchback of Notre Dame), inspirational (Helen Keller), or angelic (Forrest Gump). None of this felt right; and as she got older, she longed for more stories that allowed disability to be complex and ordinary, uncomfortable and fine, painful and fulfilling. Writing about the rhythms and textures of what it means to live in a body that doesn’t fit, Rebekah reflects on everything from the complications of kindness and charity, living both independently and dependently, experiencing intimacy, and how the pervasiveness of ableism in our everyday media directly translates to everyday life. Disability affects all of us, directly or indirectly, at one point or another. By exploring this truth in poignant and lyrical essays, Taussig illustrates the need for more stories and more voices to understand the diversity of humanity. Sitting Pretty challenges us as a society to be patient and vigilant, practical and imaginative, kind and relentless, as we set to work to write an entirely different story.

Book excerpt: Sittin on Saint Andrew Street is a sampling of New Orleans Gumbo. It is an account of true life struggles of families and individuals who are trying to find their place in society. These very same families and individuals are indeed searching for a better quality of life. The entire setting is based on events pre and post Hurricane Katrina, August 29, 2005. Between the pages of this book, there is something everyone can relate to. Such things as that family member no wants to talk about or the daily struggle of living from pay check to pay check. The individual stories are not reflected of everyone on Saint Andrew Street. The book will surely take you on a journey and challenge your very own principals and standards. The book also brings out the many efforts by the small business owners to bring forth change in this urban community. Sure, the Saint Andrew Street community has its problems like any other community in any part of the world. But what makes this community unique is that it has not forgotten the basics. This community remembers to treat people the way you would want to be treated. This community has not lost its sense of pride, self-worth and value.

The choices you make in your journey meet with many challenges, but there is always an open door for better days. You may take two steps forward and six steps back, but it is those two steps that will make the difference. Holding to the rope railings of a swinging bridge as you move forward, is a shaky endeavor, but not one that cant be accomplished if you keep moving. This is what Lynn realized when coming to terms with her emotions. It was like sittin at a bus stop, waitin on a train.
