Really great indeed! That is the attitude I love about so many jazz people.

It was a wonderful reminiscence.  I really liked the Paul McCartney anecdote, and the lesson derived.  Mr. Lewis was a special person.

Didn't want to post something that I wasn't sure of,
but has anyone seen info that Redd Holt passed away on Tuesday?
I ask this because the Wikipedia entry shows this and the link they've
provided doesn't go to an obituary.
