medjuck Posted June 28, 2016 Report Share Posted June 28, 2016 In Sunday's LA Time's crossword 6 down is "Monk associate". I joke to myself that maybe it's Charlie Rouse but then try to think of who works at a monastery besides monks. After a few letter are filled in the answer is "Coltrane".

fasstrack Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Certain constructors are evidenlty jazz fans. I've seen Thad Jones, and a few others I can't remember now in NYT puzzles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazztrain Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 ELLA shows up frequently. Earl Hines (or FATHA) and BASIE occasionally as well. TORME too. There's another crossword in jazz thread somewhere on the board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
