Sonny Rollins said he wasn’t giving his best stuff on Tenor Madness (the title track only; not the entire album). Ironically, he says it was because he was playing with Coltrane whom he didn’t respect yet. It was in 56 which turned out to be a great year for Coltrane and playing on the Rollins classic was definitely a highlight.

Quote:

I wasn’t really playing. Coltrane was playing. I was only playing halfway, because I thought that I was the guy and that Coltrane was this young whippersnapper. That was my mind-set.

Damn I hope they make this happen. Nothing this exciting since hungry hungry hippos the movie.

I'm just picturing him taking a bite of toast before giving an off camera henchman the order to gun down his enemies in a tense negotiation scene.

Tonight I learned... how to cut on a manual lathe. I had to make two parts, both to a certain size. So I learned how to set the zero on the dial and touch off on my part, then measure and cut off pieces. I did 10 thousandths at a time and it only took around an hour to do two parts. Then made a part on the CNC machine but that was just button pushing lol

got a 92 on the milling quiz and 96 on the turning quiz.... https://boxden.com/smilies/tv6aijN.png

Thanks, it honestly was fun trying to get the parts into tolerance. The instructor helped and basically just showed me what to do and then I did it. I was shocked I did it actually.
