Maybe this one close the circle?

This one?

Yessss, that's the next one in my listening pile!

Prompted by Mike Weil's AOM thread, I have been listening to a string of mid-50s-and-onwards Ben Webster discs during the last two days:

Many thanks for the link to this very interesting interview. Yes, drummer Joe Nay was strongly connected with Tete in 1971, taking part in several of his discs: "Body and Soul" (Enja), "Recordando A Line" (Discophon), "Ten To Two Blues" (Ensayo) and "It's About Blues Time" (Ensayo, under Goykovich's leadership). I have also got documentation on several concerts in Germany (Spring 1971) and Spain (Autumn 1971, with Dexter Gordon or Pony Poindexter). As for Mickey Bahner, in my TM chronology, he only appears once: in a concert in Schwabach (May 1971), with Dusko Goykovich on trumpet and flugelhorn and Frank St. Peter on tenor sax, of which there is a private tape. In the abovementioned interview, Bahner talks about "early 70s", so maybe he is not the bassist on Tete's first residence at the Jazz Galerie in May 1969... or rather he simply does not recall this earlier collaboration.

Thanks, Niko!

This one's (mainly) for our German board members: Do you have any info on a jazz club located in Berlin called "Jazz Galerie" which was active at least in the late 1960s and early 1970s? Any sort of information/documentation is most appreciated (location, photos, archives, newspaper articles, contact of former owners...). I am assuming this is a different one from the famous "Jazz Stage". And sorry if this is well-known lore. Tete Montoliu reportedly played at the Jazz Gallery for some time starting probably mid-May 1969, backed by a local rhythm section, as reported in an interview published in the Spanish newspaper "La Vanguardia". Many thanks in advance! [title edited for correct German spelling]
