Congrats! Just received it. BTW the eponymous recording isn’t available anymore. I’ve been looking for it for years. Perhaps a note to Uehlinger might help?
Congrats. I'm GenX too; but I had to make friends with the idea of self-promotion, because there's no other way to be found anymore as a musician, by anyone, without it.
I know + have seen quite a few excellent, even great jazz musicians our age and older in my city, that no one (besides me) goes to see their gigs bc they just don't promote them. So no one knows, and no one goes.
Gen X here too. "Promote your work like a self-obsessed millennial" resonated with me when I read it somewhere (with apologies to millennials, but not the self-obsessed).
I don't see it that way. It's not "self-obsessed" to, say, have a car-customizing shop and want people to know what you do; it's just good business to advertise if you want it to live.
It's hardly new to advertise yourself; Norman Mailer titled a book "Advertisements For Myself" or something like that back in the mid-1960s; before most of us were born.
My copy came in last week, looking forward to diving in!
Major congrats. Very much looking forward to reading.
Congrats
