Rick Martin cherished music, and the music cherished him. He could grab a tune so quickly that this didn't subject to the Natural cotton Club supervisor that he was underage or even to the people in the band that he was only a white child. He began in the slums of LA with little or nothing, and he finished up on top of the game in the speakeasies and nightclubs of NY. But while skill and drive are all you need to make it in music, they aren't enough to make it by using a life. Dorothy Baker's Young Man with a Horn is widely regarded as the first jazz book, and it pulses with the music that described an era. Baker needed her enthusiasm from the artistry - though not the life - of renowned horn player Bix Beiderbecke, and the book went on to be modified into an effective movie starring Kirk Douglas, Lauren Bacall, and Doris Day.
