Andrew Hill, R.I.P.

Andrew Hill died earlier today at 4 a.m....he was 71 days short of turning 76. As I mentioned before, he had been diagnosed with Lung Cancer a few years ago.


It's a huge loss!





Andrew Hill

June 30, 1931 - April 20, 2007

A video of his last concert on March 29th, 2007. He doesn't look well in it and his playing is shaky at first.

I am glad one Grasshoppa was able to see him. I keep saying that these Older Masters are not getting any younger. If you can afford it....





May Newk, Cecil, and Ornette and the other few remaining live another 100 productive and healthy years!!!!

I have said this before, but Johnny Griffin isn't doing too well these days.


The Little Giant and Former Fastest Tenor Alive just two months ago.

From what I have been told by someone in attendence the band disrespected him throughout.
