Goddamn! I haven't renewed my passport
otherwise I'd be at Birdland Theater Thursday week for this gig. However, maybe
one day the show will hit the UK.
Daryl, you've been away too long and the (very) thought of you singing Blossom Dearie, Bob Dorough and Dave Frishberg must, if not be brought over here, be at least recorded. Lance

My heart is so full with thanks to you. After all these years you're still in my corner.
Bless you. I do hope to bring this tribute "over there". Jay Leonhart has never had much exposure to UK audiences and he deserves to be heard. He's quite a character and a good quirky songwriter as well as an ace bassist.
After the Birdland date I hope to have a bit of a vacation and then will set myself to'world affairs'. Please take care my dear bebopping friend.
PS: Jay will be in London at the EFG Festival with Roy Gallon in November so that's a start. x
