Big fan of him. Got to hear him the very first time on the Black Lion LP "Anthropology" which became a "hit" when all them folks came to my place to listen to records into the small hours. They all loved that record and often asked me to spin it in the course of a night...... -
Is it possible that I saw him live with the Thad Jones-Mel Lewis Big Band ? I think HE was the pianist. Jesper Lundgaard was on bass, Dick Oats and Steve Coleman where saxophonists, Pepper Adams on bari I think, so I think I remember Jim McNeely was on piano......, was a very fine night, to hear that legendary band. After Thad Jones had left the band, it was not the same anymore, most of all because they got Bob Brookmeyer to compose and arrange. Nothing against Broockmeyer, he sure has many fans here, but in my case the connections did not happen. It may be my fault, but I didn´t hear anything that thrilled me.... A treasure from my early teenie years. From the first few bars a livelong favourite of mine. I think, Sun Ra, late Trane, Pharoah Sanders and Dolphy where main sources to live that miracle of good music....

Filles was a thing you got to have and to study when I was a kid. There is no way to ignore Filles if you want to follow Miles´transition from simple hardbop to the compexity of things like Bitches Brew as the start for a most creative period until 1975. It was so much en vogue, that album. All those there were becoming top acts on their own. Chick, Herbie, Tony, John McLaughlin and so, they became main influences of the jazz of the 70´s which developement I could follow from the start on. You met guys on the street who would stop you and ask you if you have a copy of "Filles". Some few had purchased the LP. We others might copy it on casetofon. I never will forget that question about the album. Nobody here in my surroundings knew how to pronounce it. They all said😄 "Fill Less deh Killi Mann Djaro"
