Gheorghe Posted October 3 Report Share Posted October 3 Well very interesting. About the erratic performances towards the end of the Birdland Gig in late 1964 I think one thing must have frustrated Bud: The lack of recognition, the disappointment that they didn´t book form him congenial partners like let´s say Max Roach and Charles Mingus or so (would have costed a fortune), and the disappointment that he couldn´t "handle his own dough" since nobody seems to have explained to him that his was booked only to cover the expenses of his more than half year stay at the Paris Sanatorium....., and the bills and taxes and lawyers for gettin back his carbaret card and and and and ...... Would anybody even with a better state of mental health carry that kind of indignity ??????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
