It still hasn't sunk in yet that I won't see Ralph randomly show up in the drum chair at a Jazz set in the Boston area. We were all a bit spoiled that a player like Ralph could be called in when someone needed a drummer. Ralph drove the band from that drum chair. I will miss that guy.

Yes, Peterson was a fantastic drummer & musician.   I'm sorry that never had an opportunity to see him perform live. 

It's a cryin' shame he died so young.  Only 58.

Great, didn't know about that

It's like hearing him live on a good day. Nicely recorded too.

Charlie Shavers With Maxine Sullivan – The Complete Charlie Shavers With Maxine Sullivan

One of many frustratingly disparate Charlie Shavers records with scattered veins of excellent moments throughout.

Have all on vinyl  except "Hot Blood" (CD) - excellent west coast music

"cool & crazy" = 10" LP - "Big Shorty Rogers Express" is the 12" version.
