RIP Jack DeJohnette. I was lucky enough to see him play twice, once in the early 90’s at the Royal Festival Hall in London with Herbie Hancock, Pat Metheny and Dave Holland and once a few years later at Birdland in NYC with Michael Brecker, Metheny, Holland and Joey Calderazzo.

Closing Time | To Wisdom, The Prize - Sargasso
To Wisdom the Prize is een geliefd jazznummer, dat al door veel artiesten is vertolkt. Het werd gecomponeerd door Larry Willis en uitgebracht op het album On the Move van het Nat Adderley Quintet. Hier horen we het in de versie van jazzpianist Joey Calderazzo, op zijn album Traveler uit 1993.
