In February 2002, Swiss radio invited the writers Jürg Laederach and Michel Mettler to a conversation about jazz. From that meeting in the studio grew an intense exchange of emails, first about music, then, straying from life's soundtrack and returning to it again and again, a running record of everyday life. This book collects only Laederach's side, edited by Mettler: improvised writing with an infectious drive, about records and radio, and about everything else that comes along.
