7/4 Posted November 8, 2009 Report Posted November 8, 2009 His web site sez he needed surgery, sounds like he's in a bit worse shape than I was! . Quote
BillF Posted November 8, 2009 Report Posted November 8, 2009 Get well Joe One of my favorite is his "52nd Street Theme" where IMO he pays tribute to Tadd Dameron. Vic Agreed! An astounding present-day re-creation of classic bop of 60 years ago! Quote
king ubu Posted November 8, 2009 Report Posted November 8, 2009 Yes the Nonet is mighty fine! Get well soon, Joe! Quote
jostber Posted November 8, 2009 Report Posted November 8, 2009 Gotta check out that 52nd Street Themes. Mighty cool cover too. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted November 8, 2009 Report Posted November 8, 2009 This came across Lovano's twitter account: "I'm okay. In a freak accident, I fell and somehow broke both arms. Had to cancel all gigs through the end of the year. I'll be back soon!" OUCH!!! What a pisser! Get well soon, Joe. Yuck. Indeed, hope is here for a speedy recovery. Quote
ValerieB Posted November 9, 2009 Report Posted November 9, 2009 what a major drag. i am so sorry for Joe. he's been working his butt off lately. boy, he's sure going to get an enforced "vacation". enjoyed him SO much at Monterey less than two months ago. wishing him a smooth and complete recovery. and echoing what others have said, he seems like a genuinely great guy, aside from his awesome talent. we're rooting for you, Joe!

The way I had heard it, Sonny didn't realize how far down it was. He thought it was just a few feet, and he was feeling loose and wanted to "work the room" a little. It's been quite a while since I watched that video. Quote
