Tony Williams’ telegraph to Sam Rivers.

I’m sure we’ve all seen the film of bird and Dizzy playing hot house. Here is a longer film. I’ve never seen this extended film before

The tape that contained this recoring.

RIP. I believe he was 95.

He died from Covid 19. RIP.

Yes. I was thinking about him.

“Some bad mother fuckers.”

The TV show Melrose Place, there's some scenes in a jazz club. Cedar Walton is playing piano. I've never watched this show. Anyone know if this is true? There is a CD called Melrose Place Jazz. IT does have Cedar in the credits as well as several other jazz musucuans. https://www.allmusic.com/album/melrose-place-jazz-upstairs-at-mp-mw0000032702

The only copy for sale on Amazon is 54 dollars for a used one. Crazy. I'll look for it from Japan.

Anyone here have this session by Cedar Walton? I can only fine it for sale in Japan. I am wondering if it was ever issued outside of Japan.

So sorry for your loss of a family member. It’s tough doing that. I’ve had to make that hard decision before, but the suffering was over. It was the first time my dog was happy to go to the vet. ☹️

A Terrible loss. RIP

RIP.

This is so good. I am listening to this right now. What a tone Houston has.

All the best, Allen.

I never played the saxophone, but I would think this would not be an easy task playing without a strap. Is this common? Prez seems to be resting his arm on the chair.

Sad news. RIP, George.

Although he still was playing at the Blue Note pre-COVID, could it be he slowing down? At 96, why not slow down?
