Deanne ... I have been fortunate enough to have heard him live a number of times, including once outside of Boston when I was sitting close enough to out my feet on the stage - which of course I did not do ...
One of the times he was introducing a young Richie Cole

and another he was introducing Grace Kelly

And not too long ago I saw him at a small theater in the town where I live - he was playing with a local bebop alto player named Greg Abate ...

And how many people know that he played the sax solo on Billy Joel's "Just The Way You Are" ?
