Adam Posted April 22, 2005 Report Posted April 22, 2005 Tonight on NPR they had a story about Henry Grimes in their "aging musicians" series. One thing they said is that Grimes is probably better off than many other musicians of his age. Since he took 30 years off and did manual labor, he had a reasonable amount of money put into social security, so he can draw on that. Many musicians don't have that much. Quote
RDK Posted April 22, 2005 Author Report Posted April 22, 2005 I heard just the tail end of the Grimes piece as I was driving home tonight. The entire week of jazz stories should be available on-line... Quote
Adam Posted April 22, 2005 Report Posted April 22, 2005 (edited) I caught only the end of it as well. But it seems their "got to for quotes" guy is Billy Taylor, who gave some generic comments about Grimes that made me wonder whether he's really heard him in a while.
