I really can't think of anyone I admire [more], the way she's lived her life."In her long career, Barbara Dane has performed with such giants of jazz and blues as Louis Armstrong, Memphis Slim, Muddy Waters, Jack Teagarden, Willie Dixon, Benny Carter and many many moreAmong other things, This Bell Still Rings is a riveting, insider's account of the male-dominated world of music from a woman's perspectiveWidely admired for her full-throated embrace of songs of resistance, she was hugely influential.
