In the 2nd version (the official one), it mostly Shafi Hadi soloing although there is still Mingus soloing quite a bit  The ordinal version with all the Mingus tunes barely exists and is not allowed by the Cassevetes estate. That's what I read anyway. TCM streaming (via the HBO Max app) has the entire film. It's still a jolting watch, and the murder/aftermath is just, like, the last quarter or so.

Me too.

I've created my first vibe coded game thinking about JSngry asking what it is.   I started this from scratch 5 hours ago.   I used Claude desktop for the interface.  From there I had it research jazz trivia for an experienced jazz enthusiast.   With that research completed I pointed Claude to the folder of research material.   I used a brainstorming skill to create the story line for a jazz themed game based in the late 50s.  From there I had claude build the code.  We iterated several times to get the look and feel to a point where I was satisfied.    I have yet to play the game in full.  I've only reviewed the first room and used that as the prototype for the rest of the buildout.   When it was complete and working, I asked claude to make it prettier.   Last, I had to find a way to deploy the game.   I do not know how to do any of this. Click the link to see and play the game.   It should take between 1-2 hours to complete, according to Claude.   I tried not to make this easy, you should need jazz knowledge to identify the killer.   I have no idea if this is good and I suspect there's a lot of room for improvement.  For five hours work, I'm satisfied at the moment.   I don't want to hijack this thread but at the same time I would love critical feedback, especially as it pertains to late 50's jazz.   jazz-detective The URL is safe, netlify is legitimate.

I love this and the other two Gene Shaw Argo albums.  Terrific stuff.  

having seen photos/footage of the scene, there's a copy of Dolphy's "Out To Lunch" among the scattered household items (after the fact). It is a chilling setting.
