"Play and Re-Wind" a c. one hour with & about Thelonious Monk, recorded by ARTE France in 1969. I've seen clips from this before but never the entire thing. Grab it now as it's only up on YouTube until the start of November.

Italian movie "IL Nero" 1967. Dramatisation of young and black lives in Naples, mid 1960s. Interesting in itself, but also the music which features Gato Barbieri on tenor saxophone. The opening sequence with him solo particularly evocative. Sub titles available, worth a look for the music and period. I don't think it had a wide release at the time, now more highly regarded.

Don Byas - Antibes? Just back from fishing and playing "Tea for Two" just in his baggy shorts! Oh the fake spontaneity! But some nice tenor for the fans.
