New Orleans Jazz Memoir Song for My Fathers
Author Tom Sancton narrates this intro to the Other Press book "Song for My Fathers A New Orleans Story in Black and White". Set against the segregated backdrop of the 50s & 60s Jim Crow era, the book tells a remarkable story of a white kid in New Orleans learning lifes lessons not only from his eccentric father but from the many old black jazzmen he befriends at Preservation Hall in the French Quarter. Characters like Sweet Emma and George Lewis, and places like Luthjens and Central Lockup come to life as a young clarinetist comes of age. Like a jazz funeral, the tale is poignant and celebratory, capturing the music and characters of an era and a Crescent City that has long been buried and passed into legend. Sancton wrote the book after leaving town to attend both Harvard & Oxford as a Rhodes scholar, becoming Times Paris Bureau Chief for over two decades and abandoning "the mens" and the traditional jazz he loved as a teen. He has since returned to New Orleans as of 2008, holding the title Andrew W. Mellon Professor in the Humanities at Tulane.
