Hi, Benny!

And McCoy and Coltrane up on the wall.

Might be a nice place to pick up original Takt pressings...

Looks like Toshiko in the rack alongside Benny Goodman.

The headphones appear to be like two telephones. What the?

They're ordering dinner in on one, talking to their girlfriends who don't dig jazz on the others, something about having to work late tonight, you know how it is, etc.

Always the first explanation for listening to Cecil Taylor.

I'd seen those kind of "headphones" in record shops back in the day, when you could sample records prior to buying them. But, honestly,  I thought patrons were listening to two conversations at the time when I saw this. So two telephones. And it didn't dawn on me what they could be doing.
