  19. I read it yesterday when I listened to Frank Strozier, Cloudy and Cool – see 'What are you listening ...“ - http://www.coloradomusic.org/memoriam-brilliant-pianist-billy-wallace-passes-pete-martinez-passes-cancer-notable-musicians-deaths/ . There is no user contribution on Wikipedia in English but in German Billy Wallace (Pianist), updated now by me.

  21. The discography has been expanded to include Paintings because music and visuel art has been twins in Marion Brown´s career. Marion began painting in 1981 (Recollections, 1983, p. 216). He studied drawing composition with Nelson Stevens in UMass Amherst (1984-1985) and drawing anatomy with Thomas E. Fogarty Jr. in the Arts Student League of New York (1985-1986). He began to exhibit his works in 1983 (JUS´JASS, Kenkeleba Gallery, New York City, 1983), followed by exhibitions in Amherst (1984, 1985), New York (Fashion Moda, 1986, 1987), Hamburg, Germany (Weltmusikinstitut, 1988), Fürth, Germany (Jazz-Film-Tage, 1989), in 1990 in Paris (Parsons School of Design), in Northampton, USA (Hart Gallery) and at some jazz festivals in Germany (11. Leverkusener Jazztage, 13. Internationales Jazzfestival Nürnberg, 7. Ingolstädter Jazztage), and 1991 again at Hart Gallery, Northampton. He has called his painting cycles "See the Music". He has sold all his paintings. But some he gave to his friends as thanks for support. This one hung here many years in my office, now at home: This one I have sent to his daughter Anaïs St. John in New Orleans: If someone of the "members" has a painting by Marion Brown may send a scan contact - thank you.
  22. Interesting to see that the academic staff have had to travel around certainly on fee basis!
