I'm not an insider like Larry, Chuck & Allen - BUT I spent many nights listening to Frank Morgan at The Adobe Bar at The Taos Inn when he was living in Taos.
No cover charge, average local rhythm section, probably shitty pay, nice margaritas.
He always played well, never berated the band & was warm to the audience.
Memorable times for me.
I hope he didn't scam any old ladies in Taos.
The town seemed to love & respect him.
