Ted O'Reilly Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 Jazz fans in Canada were surprised by the sudden death of one of the really Good Guys in jazz, and a long-time close friend of mine... The Hamilton Spectator had a good item about his death: http://www.thespec.com/living/article/547569--mohawk-jazz-icon-dies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Tapscott Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 More than surprised. Shocked. I loved the Dave McMurdo Jazz Orchestra and their recordings (mostly on Sackville, but a couple of other labels, too). Dang, this is sad news. RIP Dave.

sidewinder Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 Sorry to hear this and RIP Mr McMurdo. I remember seeing Dave McMurdo and Band at the Art Gallery of Ontario (I think) on one occasion long ago. Very enjoyable night. I think you were MC'ing, Ted !
