That was very much the year of salmon pink. That period marked me for life. Relatedly: is Don Cherry pulling off a Jean Michel Basquiat look with that bow tie and hair combo, or vice versa? Hard not to be mildly disturbed at the 3:40 mark by Al Hirt's diaphragm movement. Quote
JSngry Posted April 24, 2010 Author Report Posted April 24, 2010 Ever the entertainer, that Don Cherry! Quote
Stereojack Posted April 24, 2010 Report Posted April 24, 2010 I recall seeing this as a Showtime (or some cable channel) special at the time. The biggest surprise was Al Hirt! Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted April 24, 2010 Report Posted April 24, 2010 Al Hirt always seemed to be a trumpet player to me. I first heard him in high school, discarded him and found him later. He could play. Quote
flat5 Posted April 25, 2010 Report Posted April 25, 2010 Miles Davis thought Al Hurt was a fine trumpet player too. Quote
