I listened to this. Good stuff. I really like Cannonball's playing during this period, when it opened up and became more adventurous. I also enjoy Charles Lloyd's playing as a sideman. Too bad the sound quality isn't better, though it isn't terrible.

Mister Grant's son is trying to sell a bunch of his broadcasts. I have been sent some for consideration. What is the source of this material?

edit to add question mark.

I don't know, but I assume they are on the trading circuit. I got it at the site-which-must-not-be-named.

there's a Kenny Dorham show with Sonny Red and Cedar Walton that Alan Grant broadcast available on the Magnetic Records, which I always presumed was a bootleg company. I've since replaced it with a lower generation reel that was transferred to CD. So its safe to say that there are more than a few Grant broadcasts in the trading market.

One of my favorite private tapes is of a "Portraits in Jazz" broadcast of April 30, 1965 in which Sonny Rollins was featured with a quartet that included Herbie Hancock, Herman Wright and Beaver Harris. Anyone know if that one is being made available as I would love to get a better generation copy? I would appreciate a PM with the link to the site in any case.
