Description

Pat Martino's autobiography is a remarkable story of recovery and rebirth. By 16, he was working with R&B star Lloyd Price, and by 18, he had moved to Harlem, where he honed his skills under the guidance of esteemed musicians. His early career was marked by a string of potent recordings that established him as one of the most distinctive guitar voices on the jazz scene. However, in 1980, Martino's life took a devastating turn when he underwent surgery for a nearly fatal brain aneurysm. The surgery left him without memory of his music or his career. Yet, through a long and difficult process of recovery, Martino learned to transcend his instrument and live in the moment. This autobiography is not just a testament to Martino's remarkable story, but also a powerful exploration of overcoming adversity and finding new purpose.
