Can he really be 86? OK only 85 when this was taped! Some of his most lyrical
playing. Heard him at the Pizza Express a couple of years ago; amazing. He is truly a great, great
player, and his search for the as yet un-played phrase is always stimulating
Many thanks for posting this wonderful music.

Seen him at the London Jazz festival few weeks ago: acoustic set (no mics) at the Queen Elizabeth Hall. Breathtaking.

Absolutely gorgeous phrasing... a wonderful musician... inspiring. And what a band, too... and such empathy.

Thank you for sharing this, altissimo.
