I think this is pretty damn cool. I am 41 and I can barely release a bowl of pasta so I am filled with admiration. Well done to him.

That is pretty incredible.  I wish him well, and the album much success.

So this will be the first album of a 100 year old jazz musician? Reason enough to buy a copy.

At 80, he made this:

[Pim]

Wow what a guy! So great he still has the energy to record music.

[Holy Ghost]

Wow. Absolutely love that he is still recording and with Don Cherry's daughter? Cool as fluff. The All Star Game is still one of my favorite Allen efforts outside of the Sun Ra orbit.

Wait, is that a Member's Only Jacket he's wearing? My wife hijacked mine. 

[Holy Ghost]

All kidding aside about the Member's Only jacket, I'm moved. It's beautiful, Neneh is amazing . I'm buying it as soon as its available.
