Oh, boy. Thanks for sharing the news, mjosef...I didn't realize. Wow, what a loss.

Sad news indeed....an excellent pianist and composer....worked with a lot of the best. I think I'll spin "Point of Departure" tonight....R.I.P.



........Samples...

[Freejazz]

I was to have seen him three weeks ago, downtown, at one of the $2 lunchtime concerts at Trinity Church ... had to skip out last minute due to business obligations.

Stunning ... simply stunning.

A wonderfully creative pianist and composer and a beautiful man ... some wonderful memories.

ANYTIME you have the chance ... TAKE IT.  Do not count on having that other opportunity.

I think mine will be "Verona Rag" on Soul Note

  Without that NYtimes link, one would find no reference to the article on the main Arts page, or even the more specific music page. America does indeed eats it young.
Thanks for the link Orf.
