I had the pleasure of seeing Gerald Wilson at the Chicago Jazz Festival in 2007(IIRC). 

Cat was 90-something at the time, but he bounced around that stage like he was a teenager! 

I saw him around then, too. Same deal!

I wish I was smart enough to have seen him more times over the years.

He was sat literally right behind me at the Horace Tapscott tribute concert about 20 years go - with what looked to be his family. 

Fortunate enough to see him at the London Jazz Fest some years later (around 2007 in fact) conducting a mainly UK big band. Incredible energy and enthusiasm ! Also saw him at the Playboy Fest with his LA orchestra and that was phenomenal, one of the greatest big bands I have ever seen/heard.

Welcome to the board and what a great set you chose for your first post. I recall that I picked this up at the end of its run and so glad I did . It's cracking and in great sound.
