Posted 13 Oct 2016 I hope Mr. Konitz has a happy birthday, I'll listen to one of his albums tonight. I hope that I can see him play when he tours next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 15 Oct 2016 Wow! And Lou Donaldson and Jimmy Heath are 90. Roy Haynes and Jon Hendricks both 94. 'Youngsters' Barry Harris and George Coleman, 86 (Barry turns 87 Dec. 15th) and roughly mid-late 80s. Sonny Rollins 86. Ahmad Jamal around the same. We probably oughtta look into this whole music thing... c Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
