This book traces the journey of a boy with a harmonica and shows him growing into an international performer and becoming the number-one studio harmonica player in the world. It's the fascinating story of a musician who appeared in concerts in thirty countries and performed a number of command performances by the time he was twenty-three, when he stopped his worldwide travel and returned to school to earn a master's degree in music (composition). He worked for five years as a composer at CBS television in Hollywood and for several years was a freelance composer and arranger. Perhaps his most notable arranging credit was as the arranger of the strings on the Johnny Cash album Songs of the True West.
