My good friend Von Freeman

Recommended Posts

My friends Sparrow and Joanie produced a dandy cd titled FIRE with Von Freeman. This is a great opportunity to hear Von in a new context for most of you. He plays great and the context gives hint of the "greater Von".

Many other fine Chicago musicians available in the Southport catalog.

Check it out.

Fascinating lineup--Tatsu (in addition to being one of the foremost old guard bassists in Chicago) is a very esteemed member of the greater Asian Improv scene. I know him through Francis Wong--one of many "big" tenors in Tatsu's musical circle, it seems. I've always enjoyed Tatsu's playing, and I'd imagine his pliant, burly tone would mesh well with a tenor as tough as Von.

I can't seem to find a link to Southport Records anywhere, Chuck. Do they have a website?

Thanks for that, Chuck. Not the easiest site to navigate, unfortunately.
