Factory Town is like a lot of other places. It has a day. It has a night. Sometimes it rains. Sometimes it shines. It gets hot. It gets cold. People move in. People move out. Business can boom. Business can die. You can get hired. You can get fired. People get born. People get dead. People remember. People forget. Souls are saved. Souls are lost. Factory Town does not go away when you sleep. Sure, you dream. Sometimes you dream of Factory Town. Sometimes you dream of that other place.
| Recently discovered video of Stan Getz and John Coltrane playing together in a European JATP concert in the early 60s; it was the Miles quintet on the bill but Miles was sick and Trane led the group as a quartet. Check out Oscar Peterson sliding into the piano chair at the beginning .. N | |

We just moved to Bordertown. I am married. I have children and grandchildren. My car is silver. There is a rosary hanging from the rearview mirror. There is a bag of mints on the floor and a hammer under the driver's seat. This blog is written by me and I take responsibility for my words. The views are my own.

Far out. But I enjoyed watching Peterson the most! I've always liked his playing, what little I've heard of it.
I remember seeing a 30 minute special on PBS that fetured Oscar Peterson. It was black and white and very cool!
Cool. I love being able to see the music in action. Thanks for the treat.
You are welcome!
