kh1958 Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 9:30 to 4 a.m.! How many sets was that? Quote
AllenLowe Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 I actually do remember paying an entree fee, circa 1969 (I was seriously underage - 15). A few years later, in college, I actually ran into one of the guys who ran the door and he was quite funny about listening to Mingus' rants: "He kept telling us it was our fault that we were white."

Michael Weiss Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Posted November 5, 2009 The time machine... This would have to be from 1967. I'm wondering if the Hank Mobley gig is the one Nica photographed ("Three Wishes"): p. 78 Hank Mobley, Charles Tolliver, John Ore p. 144 Billy Higgins p. 159 John Ore p. 277 Hank Mobley, Bobby Hutcherson, unidentifiable pianist Quote

The year 1967 would be my guess, too! I was there in October of that year and the bands lineup was pretty similar (no Mobley, though). Saw Jackie Mac and Sun Ra gigs that month. Cecil Taylor was there as an interested visitor... Quote

AllenLowe Posted November 6, 2009 Report Posted November 6, 2009 I don't have the book, but I should grab it, as I remember pretty well what the place looked like. Quote
AndrewHill Posted November 6, 2009 Report Posted November 6, 2009 Man, some of you guys were so lucky. All I get to do is drool over those acts that were there during the day. Quote
AllenLowe Posted November 6, 2009 Report Posted November 6, 2009 that Mobley shot isn't on-line anywhere, is it? Quote
