david weiss Posted June 13, 2006 Report Posted June 13, 2006 I saw this gig. I was on Christmas vacation from school and this was one of many gigs I saw. Lodi Carr is a singer and it was really her gig. I think she is still around but I don't know how much she performs these days. I remember Ron Carter and Al Harewood playing on the gig, don't remember who was on piano. Hank sounded great, his sound was huge but he didn't have the greatest control over the horn. The sound was more a result of overblowing perhaps then contol of the instrument. I loved it regardless. It's the one and only time I saw him play. He seemed a bit cranky and was engaged in conversation with Tommy Turrentine for most of the break, so I didn't try to meet him. I was talking about this gig once and the person I was talking to (I don't recall who it was now) told me they had a tape of it. I don't want to hear it, it would probably diminish my memory of that night. Quote
