Well, he was
our special avant-gardist here in our city,
and he made a whole bunch of good albums and played
with a lot of great musicians like
Henry Grimes,
Charles Brackeen,
Andrew Cyrille,
Malachi Favors, a.o.
He basically brought both
Brackeen and
Grimes out
of retirement to record their first albums in a long time.
Back in my teenage years, he was very supportive of
my reviews for a local jazz publication. His two talented
kids had worked, at varying times, at a local favorite vegan
restaurant to supplement their lives as creative musicians.
