What inspired you to write this biography of Shake Keane? Is it a first biography of Keane?
The short answer is that Shake’s life contained many elements of a good story: up from humble beginnings in St Vincent, international acclaim in the jazz world, especially in England and Europe of the 1960s; a triumphal return home that went sour because of political machinations, followed quickly by a struggle to survive his last years in New York. ....

Philip Nanton – 'Riff: The Shake Keane Story' – Repeating Islands

This may be a short book, but three enthralling stories are entwined in it. One involves the journey of a visionary modern jazz trumpeter who missed becoming a legend through happenstance, nostalgia for home, racism, and his own roving curiosity. A second vividly describes the eloquence of a rebelliously creative poet who heard the vernacular speech of his birthplace and improvisation in jazz as very similar languages; the third tracks the dreams of a reluctant but idealistic politician whose hopes for steering a cultural change evaporated in government faction-fights on his return to his homeland on the island of St Vincent. ....

The Shake Keane Story provides not only narrative but analyses his poetry, and jazz, paying particular attention to the link between his poetry and jazz. The author describes the political context which Shake seemed to have underestimated or misunderstood. He left St. Vincent one year after Adult Suffrage and was unfamiliar with the development of party politics. His fate as director of culture was sealed because of his relationship with Son Mitchell. Shake knew Mitchell at the Grammar School but they seemed not to have been close friends until they met in England, Mitchell having attended some of his jazz performances and hosted gatherings that linked him with students like John Compton, Oliver Jackman of Barbados who later became a diplomat and which was attended on occasions by CLR James whom the author says was a friend of Mitchell. ....
