For a city that is in bankruptcy, that's a lot of money to spend. As long as it's not tax payer's money, good for Detroit.

Yet another. RIP Herbert.

RIP Rita.

If you want to cheer Sonny up, write him a good old fashion letter. He does enjoy reading mail from his fans. Although he has moved, he is still using this PO box. Sonny Rollins P.O. Box 175 Germantown, NY 12526

I didn't know that. Damn, another one gone.

Bradley's, sometime around 1989-1992: I've finished a set with my trio, during which I had played "I'll Remember April" as a slow ballad. Dorothy calls me over to her table. After I sat down next to her, she puts her hand on my thigh and compliments me on the performance, all the time slowly moving her hand further up my thigh and squeezing. She says "I love the way you played I'll Remember April. You were strokin' it!" Maybe she needed a piano lesson.

Another one who played with Parker and is still with us is Larance Marable

That was real funny.

“Last week, in consultation with his doctor, Sonny decided that he needs to devote the remainder of this year to rest and the prescribed therapy in order to address his current health issues. Therefore all concerts scheduled for the remainder of 2013 have been postponed. Sonny is determined to get stronger and hopefully return to performing in 2014.” http://www.jazzjournal.co.uk/jazz-latest-news/617/sonny-rollins-ljf-concert-cancelled

Agreed. It's certainly got the Blue Note look - or should we say La Note Bleue? One of Dexter's Blue Notes?
