...An extremely useful resource for growth in other disciplines!

I not only enjoyed this book, but found it to be an extremely useful resource for achieving success in my own career. Reading this book is a "must" for those who wish to enrich their lives and grow personally in their profession.

A GREAT RESOURCE FOR PEOPLE IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY

I highly recommend "How to Grow as a Musician" to musicians, people who work in the industry (like me) and anyone who has ever been interested in the music business. This comprehensive resource with insight from some of the industry's top musicians from Al Jarreau to Ruth Brown make this an indispensible work. Congratulations to Sheila Anderson on such a fine book!

Opened my eyes

When I first opened Sheila Anderson's book it hit me in the face like a cool zephyr. I have never read a book about musicians before but this will not be my last. Brava, Sheila. I cannot put this book down. I have read this book three times already and I cannot wait to read it again. A whole new world has opened up to me becuase of this book.

A fascinating look backstage

You don't need to be an aspiring musician or in the business to find this compilation of interviews and insights from Ms. Anderson thought provoking and informative. A great read from start to finish.

Excellent Collection of Jazz Thoughts

This is a well constructed, thought provoking collection of life, artistic, practical and philosophical approaches to jazz and the jazz life. There is something helpful for those interested in getting into the head of jazz musicians as well as for the jazz musican him/herself.
