A fantastic book worth reading!

Recently, a customer told me about a book he released in 2023 called The Hidden History of Louisiana Jazz. I picked up a copy and very much enjoyed it. If you get a chance, I very much recommend giving it a read!

You can get a copy in all the usual places or from his website here www.SamIrwin.net

Have a great day everyone!
