Teasing the Korean Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 My Dad did a number of sessions with the Dave Lambert Singers prior to Lambert Hendricks and Ross. He had good memories of those sessions, liked the music, and said that Dave Lambert was a great guy. When I was a kid and didn't know anything about anything, my Dad would occasionally reconnect with an old friend from his session days. After a few drinks, they would inevitably get to the story about a colleague who got killed changing a tire on, I think, the Jersey Turnpike. Decades later I realized they were talking about Dave Lambert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 David Lucas is proud of his accomplishments: http://davidlucasmusic.com/bio.htmlAnd ouch: http://people-vs-drchilledair.blogspot.com/2010/03/new-lambert-hendricks-and-ross-tribute.html . Sadly, I learned that Leslie Dorsey, the black male in the group, had remained a struggling (mostly) choral singer until, while moonlighting as a taxi driver in NYC, he was murdered by robbers 24 years post-Lambert on Labor Day 1988. Here's the story from the NYT. Read it and weep. . http://www.nytimes.com/1988/09/19/nyregion/requiem-for-a-victim-a-singing-cabby.html?pagewanted=all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim R Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 Mary Vonnie interview on jazzwax: http://www.jazzwax.com/2011/07/interview-mary-vonnie.html Thanks for posting that link. The whole Pennebaker film is linked there, and I found it interesting and enjoyable. The only thing that still puzzles me is why the rhythm section was not credited in the film, and that nobody in any of the linked articles and discussions seems to mention who was on piano and bass (was that George Duvivier?). The drummer was a studio player named Gary Chester, which was mentioned in the comments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 Thanks a lot, Niko! The rhythm section is given in the Jazzwax post from May: Moe Wechsler (piano), George Duvivier (bass) and Gary Chester (drums) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
