Cannonball Adderley-”Brother John”- 1963
This post is non-medical related. It’s just for fun.
In 1963 I had just entered my first year of high school. It was a interesting time. The Beatles had not arrived in America just yet. Hippies and the “Love Children” were spontaneously arriving to the Haight-Ashbury in San Francisco as if drawn by a nationwide bugle call that only young people could hear. Meantime, in the hood, jazz was still alive. I first heard Cannonball play in 1958. Of course I was only 10 years old at that time and the recording was on a Bay Area Black radio station late on a Saturday night. The following Sunday this station played all Negro spirituals. That night I was mesmerized. When I began to earn a little money in high school from cutting lawns, I started buying jazz LP’s.
This group consisted of Cannonball Adderley-alto sax, Nat Adderley-cornet, Yusef Lateef-tenor-sax-oboe-flute, Joe Zawinal-piano, Sam Jones-bass and Louis Hayes-drums.
Hope you enjoy!
