It is hard to believe that in 2020 it is still possible to write a biography in great detail about a Jazz Age icon. But that is what this book is. With a treasury of information from interviews and periodicals, Ate van Delden, succeeded in creating a fascinating image of the work of a successful jazz icon. The book has Adrian Rollini's full life story and details his recordings, including those with major jazz musicians such as Bix Beiderbecke, Joe Venuti, Eddie Lang, Red Nichols and Frank Trumbauer. The book is a must-have for anyone with an interest in classic jazz and the Jazz Age.–Ben Kragting, Jr., Chairman of the Dutch Doctor Jazz Foundation "Doctor Jazz Magazine"
