I was only a teenager in the 60s and wasn’t interested in jazz in those days, not until the late 90s, so never saw them. 

I was way more into rock bands when Miles last toured and I was a kid when Coltrane died. My parents didn't even have any Brubeck LPs, much less Coltrane. We used to sing along with Mitch Miller.  

There was an article in the NYT last week or so how Argentine fans are doing whatever they can, including going into debt, to go to the Cup. Crazy at those prices. 

Tilaye Gebre - Tilaye's Saxophone with the Dahlak Band First listen. It sounds very similar to Hailu Mergia, with basically the identical saxophone licks played. I enjoy Mergia and Astatke but I'm not sure why this needed a marquee reissue. 

I have the 1998 one (as well as the RVG) and I think that’s probably enough for me although I’m sure yours sounds really good.
