I did not know - or remember, at least - that Valdo passed this year.

On July 8th (born March 30, 1928). I haven't yet picked up his Savoy date, but I was intrigued by his playing on the Charlie Parker Montreal 1953 Uptown disc. I wanted to write him and find out whether he played anymore, but I never had the nerve. I still wish that I had dropped Bill DeArango a note about 7 years ago when I had the chance...

The Savoy LP rules. I'll have to grab that Uptown CD one of these days.
