Some thirty-nine vignettes - many of them humorous, some more serious - are recounted within a fifteen-chapter framework. Written for the general reader as well as musicians, the book covers a thirty-five-year period and is arranged more-or-less chronologically. Here are many vicissitudes of life, from being awakened by a real gunshot in the next room to being shot at by a chamber maid pretending to kill Al Capone with her imaginary automatic weapon, from being the recipient of lavish praise to being dripped upon while sitting in a Russian Aeroflot plane, from being entertained in a ship's nightclub by a Bulgarian keyboard player who doubled as a tap dancer to cringing while a skirted cymbal player crashed his instruments between his legs. It's all there, and much more - and all of it is true.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jon Ceander Mitchell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1951854063\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781951854065\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Riverhaven Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/26\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.63d","brand":"Jon Ceander Mitchell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46602772709631,"sku":"9781951854065","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_715484d3-e329-4921-915f-395483e9630a.jpg?v=1739695238","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/now-you-can-take-off-jon-ceander-mitchell-9781951854065","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
