Listening to the Ruiz Birdland CD - the individual players, especially Gonzales, are even clearer than on the night and I had a pretty good up-front seat/table. As I recall it, there were only about 15-20 of us in the audience ! Just shows how good Malcolm Addey's recording was.
The other good thing I remember is the lobster surf and turf I ate during the performance. Good times !
