The life of Art Pepper Will Break Your Heart. A jazz great that should have been a jazz icon. He was one of the few alto players to resist the style and tone of Charlie Parker. Straight Life: The Story Of Art Pepper is a book written by Laurie Pepper, Art's wife. A great book but not for the faint-hearted, Art Pepper's autobiography is painfully honest as the great saxophonist describes a life of drugs, alcohol and the occasional foray into crime.
