  1. I thought Iverson's piece was a good read. I have to say it seems folks very quickly get their teeth on edge about Ethan.

  4. I notice Bird Flight has featured old broadcasts recently. Heard an old interview with Eddie Durham upon Jo Jones' passing last week.

    Desmond/Konitz

    I listened to the early Brubeck albums "real time" - my father used to tie me to the chair at age 6. So it's tough for me to be clinical about Desmond. And, i can't think about him without Brubeck - it's a package deal. Sixty years ago Desmond sounded so fresh, he swung a little and when he was playing, I didn't have to listen to the piano player doing all the frantic locked-hands chording that goes nowhere.
  6. My son quizzed me about this photo. The ones I knew from sight were Monk and Roy Haynes. It took me awhile (plus a lotta Google) but I eventually figured out the bass player was Ahmed Abdul-Malik.
  7. The Pettinger biography says NKC was perhaps Evans' most significant influence.
