    In a quirky little film made by a tenor player I used to work with, Tony Heath. This is 20 years old; performance footage starts at about 5:46, but all the background music is off the board feed.
    Which, for the bass, is an SM58 up between the bridge feet...

    Ed,
    Oops! Sorry. I clicked on the wrong Tony Heath clip, computer clutz that I am.
    Now I've got the right one: A Night in the Spotlight Part two. The pic of the singer threw me off.
    Nice views and sounds of you playing. You sound great and that was a while ago.
    Gerry



    P.S.
    This has a lot of interesting stuff, too.
    Thanks to Tony Heath for putting the Lynn Oliver clips together. I hadn't thought about Lynn Oliver's in years! Lots of stuff went down in that studio.

    There's also a volume 1 :)

    Check out Tony's Birdland Ranch website, he's got a bunch of stills from Lynn's studio -Wes, Dolphy, Freddie Hubbard etc....

    Very tasteful playing, IMO. I enjoyed the singer and video too, I think.

    What's the drummer John Smith up to these days? He sounds good on the video.

    Joe Smith. He was studying with Jimmy Lovelace while he was in the city. He moved to Barcelona a couple of years after this gig, had a couple of CDs out as a leader. Ima hafta Google him now, see what's up.

    He had the most comfortable "medium up" feel of pretty much anybody I've played with.

    Looks like Tony put up the last bit, I don't step on anything too Dear and Tender in EVERY TIME. I wish I could say the same for ALL OR NOTHING AT ALL in the outro music....
