A long time ago there used to be a cinema situated half-way down Market Street Manchester called the Cinephone. It showed mainly obscure foreign movies and sometimes British ones that were deemed too hot for general release. I saw in the evening paper they were screening a Jazz-related film titled The Connection. It was a great film and Jackie McClean and Freddy Redd made a big impact on the local Jazz scene. Years later I encountered the drummer from the Connection quartet, Larry Ritchie playing with Johnny Griffin at the Blue Note in Paris.He was suffering from toothache so not playing at his best! That was a great tribute to Freddy Redd, a true be-bop legend.
