I talked to him a short time between sets at Yoshi's. Quote
sheldonm Posted January 17, 2005 Author Report Posted January 17, 2005 The show was pretty good; Sonny's a good player. He played several tunes during the 70 minute show; Monk's "Hackensack", Dorham's "Blue Bossa", a nice version of Victor Young's "Delilah", "Four" by Cleanhead Vinson; stolen by Miles and a tune by Trane that I can't put my finger on. He did spend a few minutes plugging his latest cd which he would gladly autograph; he had several takers. I'll post a few photographs later this week. Mark Quote

Recall it was from JC's Atlantic era but don't remember the exact tune. Quote
