It was a great show, I noticed the great Harry Sokal playing a wonderful version of Naima, and there was a rare appearence of Matthias Ruegg who had founded the Viena Art Orchestra somewhen in the late 70´s ..... some great duo performances, but then it was over for me since a crazy woman slammed a door at my head and I was inconstient and rushed to hospital. Maybe.....they recorded it...... so I could also hear the rest...... it was supposed to be a long night......
great !
I think Raymond Ross made a lot of photos of the only session Bud did for ESP...with Scotty Hold and Rashied Ali and there are photos with all the guys, with Bernard Stollman and even Dizzy Gillespie, thought he had nothing to do with ESP. I also wondered where it might have been recorded..........
I don´t know who are the All Stars, but when I was in my early teens those Prestige Double albums where the best way to get to know the older music, the acoustic Miles, the still straight ahead stuff or standard ballads blowing Trane, the early Sonny Rollins, they all seemed to record for Prestige.
I have heard there were many other recordings artists too, but I think it was those giants who....with the exception of Trane were very active when I was going to high school.
Well Trane was dead for maybe 5 years, but his spirit was so strong you could feel him everywhere....... he never had died !
