The View from the Back of the Band: The Life and Music of Mel Lewis - North Texas Lives of Musician Series
Chris Smith
Mel Lewis (1929-1990) first picked up his father’s drumsticks at the age of two. At 17 he was a full-time professional musician. The View from the Back of the Band is the first biography of this legendary jazz drummer. For over 50 years, Lewis provided the blueprint for how a drummer could subtly support any musical situation.
