Review Quotes

Max Baca is an American original. The music he makes is indistinguishable from the life he has lived, and it could never have happened anywhere else in the world.--Daniel Sheehy, curator emeritus, Smithsonian Folkways Recordings

Max Baca's memoir offers an invaluable contribution to the very thin body of memoirs written by nonwhite musicians who have been key figures in the historical development of Hispanic musical cultures in the United States.--Ana R. Alonso-Minutti, coeditor of Experimentalisms in Practice: Music Perspectives from Latin America
