5.0 out of 5 stars Spiritual approach to playing music esp. jazz - great book., 1 May 2001
By A Customer
Reading this book has been something of a revelation for me. I had long suspected some kind of similarity between jazz music and spiritual nectar (!) and was jubilant to find a book I agreed with so much. There is a real sense of discovery in Kenny's writing which not only discusses what makes jazz and players such as Coltrane and Davis great, but also provides you with attitudes and meditations (on the CD) which could help you to realize that same potential which we all have within ourselves, without having to take heroin or LSD!

I imagine that this book could be a breakthrough read for many players who have either never persevered with their music through frustration or fear, or who feel they have reached an impasse and seek inspiration.

5.0 out of 5 stars well done, 29 Sep 2002
An interesting read.
My enthusiasm for this book goes up and down.Does it really work ?I don't know but it's a pleasure trying to find out.The main message seems to be develop your technique and then allow your inner self/ subconscious to take over and this certainly fits with current theoies of neurology e.g. Deborah Bull- the dancing body

1.0 out of 5 stars On second reading.., 10 Nov 2008
This is the worst book I have read in a long time. I thought my first impressions might have been a bit harsh so I decided to give the book another chance. Big mistake. The more you examine the contents, the more you realise it is completely full of spiritual hocus pocus. New age fraud has no place in music. Come on! We are supposed to be evolving and improving ourselves. Not filling our heads full of ridiculous superstitions.
