Description: "Bright Moments, the first biography of the legendary jazz musician Rahsaan Roland Kirk, establishes once and for all the brilliant multi-instrumentalist's place in the pantheon of jazz giants alongside Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, and Thelonious Monk.

Culled from three years of in-depth interviews and research, Bright Moments chronicles the tumultuous life of the neglected genius through enlightening observations and hilarious anecdotes by Kirk's friends and family, as well as by famous contemporaries such as Quincy Jones, Allen Ginsberg, Yusef Lateef, Eric Burdon, Ken Kesey, and Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson."--BOOK JACKET.
