My favorite Marvel series too, though I don't have Disney + and haven't been able to watch the new season. Just finished "The Boys" season finale. I've enjoyed that series a lot. I don't think anyone ever had so much fun in a role as Karl Urban did playing Billy Butcher!

Any before that? And/or remind me how you came to record for Demark in ‘66? (Apologies, Chuck, you’ve probably told some of those stories here before, but I’m forgetting the details.) Maybe start a new thread, if you don’t want to derail this one — although god knows threads go all over the place around here (much to everyone’s benefit usually). Thanks in advance!

I was much too young to see Coltrane. I saw Miles in 1984 with players like John Scofield and Bill Evans (sax) in the band. This was actually my very first jazz concert.

I left that part out of the encounter.

When did he joke about breaking you arm?

my parents saw Miles twice, once acoustic and once electric. The latter was at the Village Gate, not sure where the former was. Neither saw Coltrane. actually, scratch certainty on electric at the Gate -- could have been the Fillmore East with Butterfield?

I recorded Roscoe and Joseph Jarman sessions for Delmark in 1966.

Kevin asked the very same questions I was thinking! You were all of 22 or 23 in ‘68, right? Just looked up Numbers 1 & 2 was recorded in Aug ‘67 — when you had to have been all of 22 at most (maybe even 21?). Doing the math, Lester was just shy of 26 when Num1&2 was recorded — you sure hit the ground running!! But I imagine you had to have had a good handful of other formative experience before — do tell!

500×500 29.4 KB Miles Davis “Volume 2” Blue Note Japan SACD. This sounds really good–though I have a number of good sounding editions of this. This is very clear sounding, another favorite is the fatboy 2 cd Japanese RVG edition containing both Volumes–that has a beefy sound that suits the material well.

One of my favorite Maybecks.

Sad loss. He will be missed.

I plead guilty.

I just love this - playing music to talk about music. Simple idea, but effective. A bit of Blindfold Test out in the open air. Taj has always been someone I've admired. Hope this guy knows how lucky he is.

Read the excerpt that was in the New Yorker.

Early on I experimented with all styles. Some appealed to me, some not. From time to time I go back but my feelings haven’t changed.
