Hardbopjazz Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 I do hope all is well with Lee. Last year I asked him to sign an album. He looked at the album and asked me if I was really a fan. I said why, his reply was, the album was in too good a shape, as if it never was played before. "Come on now, fess up." He always has quick humor.

marcello Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 I talked to drummer Johnathan Blake last week, who was the drummer on the tour, and he told me that Lee will be in the hospital for quite some time for therapy. He also said that Lee was talking and joking the day after the stroke, by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Stryker Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Per the latest edition of Dave Liebman's newsletter published Saturday: "Lee had a brain aneurysm in Melbourne, Australia a few weeks ago. I spoke with him and it appears that full recovery will happen. He was in excellent spirits. Another warrior!!" http://liebintervals.blogspot.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardbopjazz Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 We need Lee for many more years. Glad to see that he should have a full recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
