I drove through Hillsborough, NC last week, and saw the state historic marker for Billy Strayhorn's birthplace, just 1/4 mile off Churton Street downtown.
Just dropped in, following your comment on a _taksim_ (improvisation) by Necdet Yaşar. (Aren't they complicated, these makams?) At first sight, your channel is a cozy sanctuary. Thank you. --- Randomly associated with Strayhorn's title: Dorothy Carter's "the squirrel is a funny thing", from her 1978 album. --Waving from Istanbul.
Awesome guys, sounds great
This is truly lovely... Gives me hope that there still are men who can compete, in terms of musical performance, with the departed ones.
Wonderful

very perfect 🎵
So soothing
Love to hear you play some of the other Hodges classics from the 40s, such as Come Sunday, Passion Flower, Squatty Roo, and the later Blood Count
Thanks Ewan
