    • IIRC he was the brother of actor Taylor Negron.
    • “1943 The Complete Bobby Hackett World Broadcasting Jam Sessions” Jazzology cd Time for some Chicago Style! Amazing sound quality.   297×300 12.4 KB   Bass – Bob Casey Clarinet – John Peper Cornet – Bobby Hackett Drums – Maurice Purtill Guitar – Eddie Condon Piano – Frank Signorelli Tenor Saxophone – Nick Caizza Trombone – Ray Conniff This recording session was produced and supervised by Milt Gabler for World Broadcasting Systems, Inc. in New York City on December 23, 1943.
    • I read his autobio, "Three Dog Nightmare: The Chuck Negron Story". He had a tough life, battling drug addiction, but finally overcoming it. Besides being a vocal star, he also had a college basketball career at Cal State. in LA. 
    • I'm devastated. First the guy gets cancer at an early age, overcomes it, and then dies of a heart attack at 66? I played on two albums with him, and used to drive him to gigs, because he didn't have a car back then. I idolized the guy, and when he walked up to me and told me that he liked the way I play during one gig, I was on cloud nine. Most guys that double don't master BOTH instruments, but he was frightening on BOTH clarinet and sax. As jazzbo said, he was a true 'keeper of the flame' as he showed on his many albums for Concord. What a great loss for jazz. RIP, Kenny...
