If you don’t know who CHARLES is, you might want to catch up here. I thought his beneficence had limits but happily I was wrong. Yesterday, this note arrived, with musical treats attached.
Dear Michael,
Just a word to say how pleased I was you used my videos of Kim and Andy on JAZZ LIVES. Makes me feel like chucking my job and videoing full-time. You’ll have to let me in on your financial secrets. Ha!
But here are a few more I shot — hope they are OK. The room got noisier, but I bet the Lincoln Gardens wasn’t silent either — although I doubt that there were loud kids in the joint.
With every good wish and looking forward to our NYC rendez-vous,
Charles.
Friends of Fats:
and James P, too:
Quiet, now:
This one’s got some Bix-chords:
and the first half of the Official Carmen Lombardo Tribute:
Carmen wrote some wonderful tunes:
What a nice surprise.
May your happiness increase!
