Go Fund Me for the Cookers: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-the-cookers-after-our-kennedy-center-stand I walked by him in downtown Austin in 2024 before his concert at the State Theater. He was walking by himself and seemed perfectly fine. He even said hello,.

Last night, Patrick Hill Quintet at the Kitchen Cafe. A fine young alto saxophonist and student of Charles McPherson.

Yes, I saw Prime Time five times in the club (2 sets each time), and once playing live music to accompany a play in their theater. At one point during the play, Ornette stood directly in front of me, a couple feet away, playing an unaccompanied solo. The play wasn't good; the music for it was amazing.

Prime Time was thrilling. All that sound, twin guitars, bass guitars and drums improvising simultaneously, with Ornette holding it all together in the center. And every set there would be a solo feature for each player, literally solo; it was kind of shocking the first time, after the sonic maelstrom that preceded it. Charlie Ellerbee/Bern Nix, Albert McDowell/Jamaaladeen Tacuma, Denardo Coleman/[I forgot the other drummer's name]. That was the best version of Prime Time.
