You'll meet Kermit Ruffins, Tuba Fats, Danny Barker, Dr. John and a crew of equally hip but slightly less famous cats and kitties like James Booker, Sista Teedy, Tom McDermott, Lula Elzy, David Torkanowski, Bob French and a pair of 300-pound go-go dancers. This is one street party you don't want to miss. Come on and second-line. \u003cbr\u003e\n*****\u003cbr\u003e\n\"This work is on the very short list of great books about New Orleans music.\" Ð Tom McDermott, Offbeat\u003cbr\u003e\n*****\u003cbr\u003e\n\"The most wonderful book I've read in years. It reads like a cross between On the Road and a New Orleans version of the Talmud.\" Ð Roberta LeGrand\u003cbr\u003e\n*****\u003cbr\u003e\n\"I was hooked from the first chapter. Heaven Before I Die might well be the most evocative book to be written about music in the Crescent City since John Broven's Walkin' to New Orleans.\" ÑWoody Haut\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michael Goodwin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43998219763873,"sku":"9780557394586","price":43.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0462\/1120\/3233\/files\/17ggg6q8-front-shortedge-384_af0f7943-520d-46bf-8a29-5a1fb62bc178.jpg?v=1748208571","url":"https:\/\/bookswholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/heaven-before-i-die","provider":"BooksWholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
