Descrizione
Jamaican bandleader and trumpeter Leslie Thompson worked with all the most significant black British swing musicians of the 1930s, including the legendary Spike Hughes and Ken Snakehips Johnson, and performed in London through the Blitz. Later he toured with Louis Armstrong and followed a richly varied career in which, as he reveals in this autobiography, he experienced the many-sided realities of life as a West Indian in Britain in the twentieth century.
