Chris “Doc” Stewart’s Cannonball Adderley tribute website cannonballjazz.com has more than a little about the legendary altoist—transcriptions, reviews, youtube videos, etc. However, a unique piece is a long “autobiography” of Adderley that Stewart cobbled together from many different interviews. A true labor of love. Steart writes:
“To provide a sketch of this colorful, articulate jazzman, here are a number of excerpts from interviews with Julian reassembled in chronological order. Also included are essential comments from Nat Adderley pertaining to Julian’s youth and New York City debut. These interviews are extracted from a number periodicals referenced in the Bibliography.”
