This is Hip by Peter Jones
This Is Hip is more than a biography: it also evaluates Murphy's work as a singer and as a teacher of singers. Based on numerous interviews with those who knew him best, the book delves into a performing and recording career that spanned 60 years and earned him five Grammy nominations.
Peter Jones is a jazz singer and journalist based in London. He has taught film and media at a variety of London colleges, and published a short book on black cinema (BFI Publishing), followed by a handbook for media and film students (Hodder Arnold). During the making of his first album (`One Way Ticket to Palookaville' - 2013) he developed a serious interest in the work of Mark Murphy, which has continued ever since. He reviews concerts and CDs and conducts interviews for London Jazz News. His second album (`Utopia') was released in 2016.
