R.I.P. Mr Taste!

Hm, very weird interview... I get the impression it's fabricated - many all-too-general statements, it seems like either Fuller just didn't answer the questions, or they just had a chat and the interviewer later made up some questions to put into the transcript. Also sorry to say, but the language is pretty... "holprig" I'd say in german. Anyway, it's great that Fuller's still going strong, and I wish him all the best and that he can go on for as long as he wants to! <<Curtis Fuller: Ich hoffe, ich komme aus dem Bett. Dann mache ich ein bisschen Yoga, esse einen Toast und trinke Tee oder entkoffeinierten Kaffee. Solange ich das jeden Tag tun kann, geht es mir gut. Ich habe keine Zeit mehr zu verschwenden in meinem Alter.>> This is so funny..

Pete King

Club owner and former saxophonist Pete King, who with Ronnie Scott founded the world’s most famous jazz club exactly 50 years ago, died Sunday after a long illness. Exhausted and increasingly troubled with Alzheimer’s and deafness, he had been in poor health since selling the club to theatre producer Sally Greene in 2005.
