Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Jack is not only a bill, he's money
I had the good fortune of attending the premiere of this film. Doug McIntyre is a radio man by trade, as I am, and I also play the instrument Jack Sheldon works so hard to get good at, so I was thrilled to hear of the finished product and more thrilled to see it. I now have two copies (well, one, but Doug owes me another. You see, there was some confusion in shipping... but I digress). So I come at this review knowing Sheldon's work well while gaining a new perspective on a colleague whose work I ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Finally Jack is getting the recognition he deserves
Jack Sheldon is one of the few remaining lions of jazz that speaks with a distinctive voice. This film,produced over 5 years truly captures all the elements of his life that go into the sound that Jack produces musically. Its so well crafted, some great footage of his early days in Los Angeles and his mothers swimming school. Lots of cameos by so many people, Clint Eastwood, Billy Crystal, Merv Griffin, Johnny Mandel, Dave Frishberg, and many others.

This film is must for every jazz ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - American Treasure!
I first new of Jack Sheldon from School House Rock when I was about 11 years old. "I'm Just a Bill, "Conjunction Junction", etc. His music taught me lessons in government as well as English and spelling. Cut to some 20 years later, I am at my uncles house listening to some of his big band music with him, and I hear a voice that is very familiar. I ask my uncle "Who is that"? "That's Jack Sheldon" he says.

After listening to "Forget About Me"...and that was it for me. He told me that ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Hard at Work
September 23, 2008
I saw this beautiful Peyser/McIntyre documentary about the great trumpeter "Trying To Get Good: The Jazz Odyssey of Jack Sheldon" on the big screen in an audience laughing so hard sometimes I missed the next remark.
In addition to interviews with the many famous and accomplished people who know Jack Sheldon, and music clips of his astounding performances, I was given something ephemeral and rare.

The careful choices of the filmmakers reveal a deeper sense ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - It's Better Than Good!
Sometimes, not often, you walk away from a film late at night and by the next morning, you realize it is now your duty as a good human to call everyone you know and tell them about it. Friends, family...people you might even be on the fence about...just because you have to get out the word. The Peyser/McIntyre documentary "Trying To Get Good: The Jazz Odyssey of Jack Sheldon" is such a film. There is an intangible something about this work that is infectious in the best of ways. The music in quintessential ... Read More
