Sorry, no cover to bee seen ... Okay, one of those cases where I have to copy the URL of the image and load it in a sepratae tab before it will display in the post ... Ray Anthony ... The image (and your repeat) shows up on my computer (via Firefox)...

Mentioned this before... I was ending a short stay in New York back in September 1980 and decided to check Bill Evans's appearance at Fat Tuesday's on the eve of my departure, showed up at the club where a note indicated he would not be playing that evening. Back in Paris, I caught the news of his death!

Intrigued by all the hype, I listened to a program of his music on French radio. Gave up after a couple of tunes. If he is a Messiah, I don't want any part in his Church
