Anyone have Wax Poetics magazine, Issue 31, 2008

Hi wondering if any forum members have a copy of this, and may be able to confirm whether in the Grant Green article, his son Grant Green jr. mentions a colour film made of his father performing from the early 70's.

Shuggie Otis on the cover.

Thanks in advance.

Indeed. There's a discussion about a film from Ronnie Scott's, then GG jr says "there is actually one more video out there of my old man playing. And I know where it is. [laughs] A friend of mine has it in Cleveland. And it's the funky era, like 1973 or '74."

There's a little more discussion about "bringing it out"--do you want more?

Thank you Peter, that's great. Just wanted confirmation I was correct.

I think Grant Green Jr. goes on to say that he thought the film was made to be used as a cinema short between movies.

Wonder why it was never released in the 3 years since the interview. Perhaps it's being saved for a doco or something.

Bet if it was from the sixties, it would have found a home on a Jazz dvd release by now.

Thanks again.
