About

Teddy Reig (1917-1984) was a larger-than-life character, a self-described hustler who had a profound effect on the music world from the 1940s to the 1970s. As a record producer, he captured the work of dozens of leading jazz innovators. He also had an impact on rhythm and blues, rock and roll, and the Latin field. In Part 1, Reig tells his own story. Part 2 consists of interviews with key figures who were close to Reig at various stages of his career. Part 3 is an extensive discography of Reig's productions. The copious illustrations include many previously unpublished photos.

Reviews

Reig's multiple roles-fan, A&R man, gadfly and hustler-give this volume a sense of atmospheric perspective and crass business realities unmatched by many musicians' (auto)biographies. It's fun
