Sort of an oddball album by Grant Green but itâs grown on me

RIP JeffâŚ
Iâm posting a few things from when Jeff Beck played with the Yardbirds at my folks bar in Emporia Kansas on their American tour in 1965. Emporia was a railroad hub and thatâs how they arrivedâŚby train. Dad, Mom and we three kids picked them up in our family car and took them to their hole-in-the-wall motel which was the best our little town had to offer. Emporia was rockân back then with 2 colleges stuffed to overflowing with students from the east and west coasts looking for a deferment from the war. Once theyâd played, dad took them on a tour of the flint hills and wheat field. They wanted to see the âBread Basket of the World.â

colosseum is really good stuffâŚim a big fan of the jazz drumming and sax angle on this progressive music, like gong, soft machine, etcâŚand this one features @Vecchiouomo 's sax man dick heckstall-smith (pretty sure!)

my father in law also enjoyed this and noted to me
Many of the names are familiar to me. 1960 I was in 9th grade, my music and jazz interests starting to form. They reached a peak of sorts in 1968 or so when I played a short Sunday set at the Montmartre piano. I was part of a big band organized by an âafter school learning institutionâ. After 1960 many more notable American saxophonists resided in Denmark for a couple of years, among them Dexter Gordon and Ben Webster.
One of the Danes that definitely âmade itâ was bass player Niels Henning Ărsted Pedersen. He played in the Oscar Peterson trio in the 1970âs and 1980âs.

Mt Tam all the way.
This one really hit me hard even though seems like a great one passes away every week now. His music is such a soundtrack to some formulative times in my youth. Took me forever to get a fringe jacket. Itâs like seeing my life drop by drop disappear. Some other real big ones to come. Iâm mentally preparing. Iâm also really enjoying some byrds and csny today.
