Many of the cassettes in my father’s collection were given to him by other musicians, managers, friends, and/or fans. One of them is a trio consisting of bassists Léon Francioli, Beb Guérin, and Barre Phillips, recorded live in 1976. I don’t know who sent it to him, or for what reason, but the music is beautiful. I’ll post side two next week. Solid, Jackson.
In this Substack podcast I listen to albums and cassettes from the collection of my father, the late jazz bassist Charlie Haden. If you like what you hear, please consider subscribing. I’m writing a book of Memoires about life, death, jazz, slowcore, and survival. The address is joshhaden.substack.com.
