"Jazz From Monterey: 1966"

[ghost of miles]

Last week's Night Lights show, Jazz From Monterey: 1966, is now posted for online listening. It includes music from Joe Henderson (a quartet with Bobby Hutcherson), Randy Weston, Charles Lloyd, Don Ellis, Bola Sete, and Cannonball Adderley.

Last year's program, Jazz From Monterey: 1958, Birth Of A Festival, is also available for online listening.

BTW, question: have any recordings of either Gil Evans' Friday-night performance or his Sunday-afternoon finale set at Monterey '66 ever circulated? Two contemporary reports indicate that there were problems with the sound-system on Friday night, but I'd still love to hear anything that's out there... the searches I did failed to turn up anything. A live Evans ensemble performance in those days was evidently a rare thing.
