Yes.  The American Quartet was playing there when Lee Morgan was shot.

One of the 1965 Charles Lloyd recordings on Manhattan Stories (Resonance) is from Slugs.

thanks. Figured Lloyd had, too. I don't really listen to Lloyd but good to know that performance is out there.

It’s a good performance.  A nice bridge between R&B and non-extreme avant garde jazz.

Agreed. Not the biggest Lloyd fan either, but it's a good listen and an interesting slice of history.

$33 on CD from Amazon, seems to be the same from Dusty. Just saw it at Euclid Records for $38 here in St. Louis (flying out from visiting my dad this week). Blue Note web site is $33 (plus shipping, or free shipping if you buy north of $85).

Anybody got a line on anywhere that has this cheaper on CD??

($33 is kind of highway robbery, if you ask me.)

I listen to it via Apple Music streaming, I can hear bass.  But somewhat muffled.  It reminds me of Dexter Gordon's "The Squirrel".

listened via spotify yesterday and agree, during the bass solos it's good, otherwise, I could mainly feel it but not that much more...

I listened to the whole thing. Overall, I think it's a DeJohnette show. The drums have tremendous drive. Henderson is also great, especially on the first song. McCoy seems a bit overwhelmed. The bass isn't really audible.
