Ted O'Reilly Posted June 15, 2011 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
John Tapscott Posted June 15, 2011 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. Quote
sidewinder Posted June 15, 2011 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 ! Quote
