We graduated to a shorter and tighter version of "The Hard Blues." Though we miss Baikida Carroll's presence in the earlier, more deeply breathed version, we find the story here to be one where jazz historicism meets and makes a thoroughgoing intersection at the crossroads of Ellington and Mingus. And it does so w/out a rhythm setchen. Tally ho, kings and queens.
On and on and on and on.
