I only heard of Steve's death today. He was an extremely generous man, and back in the 1970s I corresponded with him about the late trombonist, Bill Harris, who he greatly admired. He was kind enough to send me cassettes of much of his recorded work, including his encounter with Ben Webster, which was long deleted at the time. I never met him, l only know of him through his writings for Jazz Journal. He was a friendly correspondent whose enthusiasm shone through in all he wrote, and he wore his considerable knowledge very lightly. At the time of our correspondence he was being attacked for his honest, but at the time (probably even more so today) views on an LP which had been issued about "Gay Jazz" That was the great thing about Steve - he wrote what he thought, not what others told him to think.
