  3. Hi Colin - Hi David,
    the link is (again) visible at the top of the thread.
    Since several month blogger tends to move the contributor's comments (links that is) to the spam folder.....

  5. This is a wonderful recording. Thank you! Question: on track #4, "CT, JL, Ann S McC" I assume the first two are Cecil and Jimmy but who is Ann? Steve's wife, daughter, mother, someone else? Or perhaps a stylisted version of Mingus' MDM (Ann = "and"??) Anyone have insight?

  7. Hi dolphyfan,
    you're right, the dedications are for Cecil Taylor and Jimmy Lyons and "Ann SMcC" means: announcement by Steve McCall ;-)
