            [B]Cedar Walton Trio "My Ship"

            Much as I love This Tune especially the Miles/Gil version I find this version irritating and trivialised. Though I love all the musicians concerned.

              NP Herbie Hancock Sextet - "Ostinato (Suite For Angela)" - from "Mwandishi" (Warner Bros. 1971)

              Pretty sure you could have an entire programme of jazzers' tributes to Angela Davis...
              all words are trains for moving past what really has no name

                Angela Davis interviewing Carmen McRae in 1977. Both great, Carmen being a favourite, THE favourite of mine. Re Bird, "people get high because they want to get high, that's it, they just enjoy it"

                  Norma Winstone's too, if I remember correctly from a radio interview.

                    The song that Carmen talks about "Women Talk", "written by "this unlikely English couple, the woman with bad halitosis and the much younger man" = Johnny Scott and Caryl Brahms. She was quite an age and wrote the opening sketches for That was the Week. He's Johnny Scott who was a pretty nifty 50/60s English jazz flute and alto player who went onto film music. So there.

                            Here's Johnny Scott with, I think, Duncan Lamont, David Snell, Arthur Watts & Barry Morgan playing 'Donna Lee' from Jazz 625 in 1964:

                              Thanks for that! Blonde woman in the opening minute looked like Dusty Springfield! I don't suppose she was but maybe...

                                Probably our nearest to West Coast Cool - interesting for that.
