Description: "In his all-too-brief lifetime, jazz guitarist Lenny Breau astonished listeners with his mastery of his instrument and the fluid synthesis of styles. Valerie Breau St. Germain was there to see his hothouse growth, from the prodigious guitarist with his parents' travelling country band [Hal Lone Pine] to session player and jazz innovator. As his wife and mother to his two children, Melody and Chet, she had the rare insight into the man behind the music." -- from publisher.
