I went to see Larry at the Jazz Showcase on Tuesday Dec. 19; it was a rough week, finishing Xmas shopping, a Grad. class, and running home from work, but afterward I was glad I went. Larry signed my CD, was gracious and I got to the Jazz Showcase before it closed, to move! I had a great dinner before the show and remember thinking to myself while listening to Larry play, "a good meal & great music, times like these make life worth living!
I'm the photographer that took the front & back cover shots for Larry's 1993 CD "Bolero." I took a class from his former 11th House bass player, now Dr. Daniel Trifan @ Missouri Western State University in St. Joseph, MO. Danny wrote the forward to my book, "Classic Concerts of the 1970s: The Encores Continue". I have several more of the 1981 shots (two of which Larry used for "Bolero") in my book. I arranged a reunion between Danny & Larry @ the St. Louis Jazz Festival in June of 2001! Also, Larry played w/ his sons, Murali & Julian there. Great day!

Your sure revamped the site. Did you do away with the forum for lack of interest or am I just seeing it? I think I like what you have done because it loads much faster. Happy New Year to the Coryells and all their fans.
