I certainly learned a lot and am inspired now to listen to more of the music from Bud and Wayne — thanks very much for writing it and sharing the history and extremely interesting stories!
I did notice 2 apparent typos in same paragraph: “ genius of bepop piano” & “helpmeet of Francis”
Thanks for reading, Bill! And thanks for noting the typo, yikes! Fixed bebop, though I think "helpmeet Francis Paudras" is correct. Uncommon word, but it's accurate here.
Just wow and thanks for this bit of history. I’ve always loved Bud Powell’s music, but never had a clue about who he was. This post brings life to “behind the scenes” creating such an amazing collaboration of musical minds.
Michelle, thank you for this wonderful article. For anyone wanting more on Bud, I highly recommend Peter Pullman's book, Wail: The Life of Bud Powell.
I second your recommendation!
this is wonderful
Thanks, Jimmy!
Wayne's "Bouncing With Bud" solo is amazing! I had not heard it before, so thanks for posting it.
We're so lucky to have a recording of this special night, right? Thanks for reading.

Thanks for reading, Peggy. As always. Jazz musicians are such great characters . . .
