You Will Love It--It Is Pure JakeBy shrinkucciI was a young drummer, new to Las Vegas, playing with my first lounge act and Jake was playing with the band. He was not only supportive but talked drums with me by the hour. He later recommended me for the drum chair with the Air Force ldquo;Airmen of Noterdquo; big band (which did not happen). Our friendship spanned over four decades and I experienced firsthand his lively wit, storytelling, humanity and playing. We last hung out at a jazz weekend here in Denver a few years before he died. One of the funniest things he ever said to me occurred after he heard me take a not so well constructed drum solo in the Sahara Hotel lounge at Lake Tahoe. After the set I came down to say hello and waited for his assessment. He said, ldquo;Well Ron, Irsquo;ll say this for your drum solomdash;you hit everything at least twice.rdquo; How could I not laugh at and appreciate his witty, honest, yet tactful feedback. I loved Jake and miss his joyful energy. I just read this book and it is a wonderful tribute to Jakersquo;s spirit and world view. Note: to the reviewer who said it was boring, you missed the bookrsquo;s point. It obviously is not meant to be a serious analysis of his playingmdash;so, lighten up.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Jake was a a terrific drummer and one of the quickest wits I've ever ...By Steve BladesJake was a a terrific drummer and one of the quickest wits I've ever been around. I put on a national jazz event for 11 years and whenever Jake played it was a real treat. He was also generous by donating his time to support our Jazz in the Schools program's efforts to bring this classic music to the all students from K-12 whether they played music or not.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Jake Hanna. a beautiful drummer, and a lovely manBy Jimmy TagfordThis semi biographical, semi anecdotal book about the great jazz drummer Jake Hanna has been lovingly written and compiled by Jake`s niece Maria Judge. Not only was Jake`s drumming the heart of any band with which he played, but his wit, humor and wonderfully large personality also had something to do with that gorgeous drive and swing that he was noted for from his days in `s "Swinging New Herd", through his tenure on the Merv Griffin TV show, the days as virtually the house drummer with and the years of global travel with the jazz greats , including vocalists and .Many well known drummers and performers have contributed their memories to this book and Maria is to be congratulated on a fantastic effort.All drummers should own a copy of this book, in fact order several copies and distribute them around your friends, or at least get one for your drum teacher! This colorful memoir of the great jazz drummer and witty storyteller recounts his life story and career through tributes, recollections and anecdotes -- many of them his own hilarious quips -- from more than 170 friends, fans, and fellow performers including , Marian McPartland, Eiji Kitamura and Jeff Hamilton; musicians he mentored such as , , and Scott Hamilton; and fans such as Harry Crosby, Charlie Watts, Vic Firth and Jim Keltner. His performances with Woody Herman, , Harry James, , Hanna- Fontana, Bing Crosby, Rosemary Clooney, Tony Bennett, , , The Merv Griffin Show band and over 250 albums are legendary!
