Keepin' the Beat is somewhat of a sequel to the author's first book entitled The Up of the Down Beat. Although this book mainly focuses on the author's hometown, Savannah, Georgia, it also takes you on a journey to other places that share events, experiences, and encounters. Realizing that a lot of information was not included in The Up of the Down Beat and many interesting and meaningful things have happened since it was published, the author was compelled to share more of his life's musical journey. Keepin' the Beat references some of the places and people in his first book and introduces the reader to subsequent and current happenings in his and the lives of musicians. Musicians are creative and sometimes eccentric, but what is important to them is keeping jazz alive and uplifting the human spirit of people who appreciate it. Approaching the twilight of his life's musical journey, this author considers this book to be somewhat of a legacy and culmination of his musical journey. By "keepin' the beat," he and other musicians are marching and playing to the beat by perpetuating and creating a music art form that has permeated the world--the art form commonly referred to as jazz.
