I will always remember the New York Musicians Festival which took place at Alice Tully Hall, Lincoln Center over 6 days in July 1973. There were 5 bands each day playing sets of 1 hour so you got 5 hours of jazz for as little as $4, $5, $6. I attended on two occasions and on the 6th July one of the acts was Milford Graves. Although billed as a quintet he started his set playing solo on a conventional drum kit then after some strange chanting he started to play the floor with his sticks and anything else that was to hand! Then from the back of the hall there came 2 tenor players playing at full force making their way to join him on the stage. Joe Ford was one but I can't remember who the other one was. It was the most far-out music I've seen and heard" A friend of mine had a record of Don Pullen which I liked a lot. R.I.P Mr Graves You were awesome.
