Eddie Lockjaw Davis - "Afro-Jaws" album 1960.

Jaws goes Latin with Clark Terry etc. Splendid firey stuff. I'd kind of taken him for granted but I was reading Johnny Griffin's recall of when they co-led the quintet. Lockjaw corking up some of the tenor keys, "Hey what you doing man?" Davis..."Don't need 'em!"

The JRR Wayne Shorter Memorial special.

It's going to be hard to pick out a favourite from today's wonderful selection, but I have a tape of that interview with Wayne when he mentioned the spontaneous rendition of Stella by Starlight to a soaked Japanese audience. Imagine being in that crowd on that day - a lifetime experience.

Yes indeed. Who cares about a bit of rain when you could see that!
