Shakespeare (in and out of jazz)

[HutchFan]

The other day, I stumbled across this recording while poking around on discogs.  It reminded me of this thread.

Interesting group of musicians. Lots of heavies.

Anyone heard it?

You'll find it mentioned by Sidewinder at the top of the thread - you probably missed it because the picture vanished.

I've heard it but don't remember it grabbing me. Must play it again.

Good piece here giving the other view of Shakespeare:

I enjoy Shakespeare (but I needed to be taught how to enjoy it) but I know what he means. And what he means can be applied far more widely than Shakespeare.
