Byard Lancaster (1942-2012)

He was living here in Chicago a few years ago, playing for tips at the corner of Michigan and Adams, across the street from the Art Institute. Seemed healthy, sounded energetic. Strangely enough, he only played on the street, not in concerts or clubs. The rumor in those days was that he moved here for love of a local lady.

One of the good guys.

I've just received a copy of Byard's Documentation/The End of the Decade- on CD. CD tray liner and booklet look very crude , the CD has printed paper label ( image of BL). Anyone else have this CD , is it legit. ??? It has a very bootleg like quality to it , I can't tell is the disc is a CDR , it's slightly greener in colour.

Re-upping this thread as it seemed like as good a place as any to ask:

Do any of you have a scan of the Byard Lancaster interview in Cadence from March 1980? Would like to read it and I don't have a copy. This is for a research project and you'll certainly be thanked!

I have it for you.  PM sent.
