Indestructible! Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 I know Dan Skea is (was?) working on "The RVG Project", which in part is (was?) attempting to do just such a thing. I have no idea how far along he is in his work, but I know he's been at it for many years already. I wish he'd drop by this board and give us an update... Cheers, Shane Quote
Bright Moments Posted March 31, 2009 Author Report Posted March 31, 2009 thanks shane for the info - how can i contact this guy? Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 Dan contacted me a few years ago for an interview and for information about my sessions at Rudy's. Not sure I still have contact info. A piece about RVG by Dan is posted on the Columbia University site George Lewis controls and is buried somewhere in http://www.jazz.columbia.edu/index.html . There may be a way to contact him. Quote
