Exemplary recordings and stray thoughts about and around the trumpeter and composer
Fantastic piece, Dylan, and it made me realize I've never paid enough attention to Byrd at any phase of his career. Great writing, great insights, great info!
Thanks, Steve! He does seem like someone who's sometimes known more than heard, and I'm glad you picked up new stuff.
Nicely done, and thanks for amplifying "Jazz from Detroit."
This is great. I fucking love Donald Byrd, and it’s hard to think of too many people whose transition from bop to soul jazz to funk was as elegant
Excellent piece!
Thanks, Syd!
