Chuck Nessa Posted July 13, 2019 Report Share Posted July 13, 2019 Randy has announced his father's passing on Facebook. He was a fine tenor player and a really good guy. Ann and I are pleased to have known him. The new Mosaic Woody Herman set will feature some examples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Gould Posted July 14, 2019 Report Share Posted July 14, 2019 Very sorry to hear this. Must be very hard on Randy ... Here's a JazzWax interview (part 1) with Arno: https://www.jazzwax.com/2012/01/interview-arno-marsh-part-1.html In addition to his work with Woody, Arno was on several live dates in the early 2000s, all of which can be recommended and appear to be available from the label still, and very cheaply ($8): https://www.woofyproductions.com/SearchResults.asp?Cat=3 My favorite remains something I snagged from right here, Arno sitting in with Organissimo on Blue Lake radio. Streaming real audio files might not be the greatest fidelity but a great performance all around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Kart Posted July 14, 2019 Report Share Posted July 14, 2019 Arno's warm-toned swinging style was instantly recognizable and very satisfying. I'm looking forward to the Mosaic Herman Mars set. R.I.P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed S Posted July 15, 2019 Report Share Posted July 15, 2019 My condolences to Randy and everyone else in his family. I met Randy 3 or so years ago when my sons and I attended an Organissimo concert at the Grand Rapids Jazz Festival. He was hosting a jam session at a local venue afterwards. Great guy. Having just lost my father, I have great empathy for what he's going through. Wishing the best..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
