Sad to hear that Ted Curson passed away--- I remember him at the Corner House very well. A very nice guy who regaled us ,after the gig,with stories of his time with Charlie Mingus. Unfortunately he struggled terribly that night as his "chops" had gone & he apologised to Sid Warren who supported him manfully which allowed him to complete the gig. He was obviously a much better player than his performance on that night suggested--- there were occasional flashes of brilliance--- you do not get to work with Mingus if you were less than world class!!! But I do remember him as a gentleman during that particular period of visiting American trumpeters--- happy days!!!!
