Mike, thanks for your article on Jaco. He worked hard at his music and it is what mattered to him. The problems he had were mysteries he never figured out how to deal with, and people often let that overshadow the rest of who Jaco was.
Best

Messieur Zwerin,
I am on Your internet pages reading about Minton,Miles and All Killian and Your youth experience playing jazz in N.Y.I read You were playing with All in N.Y.I am Killian fan from my youth.i have got an article about his death.HE WAS FIGHTING FOR HIS LIFE 5 HOURS!!!!!Nobody took him to the hospital!that was time of Korean war and surgeris were much more modern as before.
I was reading Buck Clayton biography where he has some sentencies about him.Buck hated him quite obviously.Would You be so kind and in future write me some sentences about Killian what a person he was?Si Vous ete si gentile Quand Vous sera "in the mood"?Seulment quelqes parole?

Mike,
You'll find this refreshing.
1957 (winter) .Dennis Cunninghan you and I to Mannheim and Heidelburg in your deux cheveaux. From there to Grenoble where Paul Haines was living. You and I played a couple of sessions as "Mike & Ike" (two bones). written about with photos in a half page article in Grenoble daily
We dropped off Dennis. Then we went on to Geneva where we spent an alarmingly funny night and a day with Terry
Southern. Lots more about that time yet to tell.
And recall The Upper Boohemia Six (ca. 1959?-correct me
on date if mistaken) Monday nights at the newer Five Spot.,
A fab agregation it was. Richard Davis, Freddie Redd, later Mal Waldron, Joe Chambers,, jay Cameron and (as they say) last but not least, Larry Riivers, toi et moi.. lots of photos. You would love them.
Am spending second winter in Nice with lover of ten years. We married in October. Painting, pastelling, showing next in Frankfurt. No more trombone for me. Left shoulder torn rotator cuff put stop to my love affair with the horn. Noodle some every day on melodica and recorder, recalling the great tunes.
Love to hearc from you

Mr Zwerin, you have, finally, reappeared.
As a regular reader of IHT and an old jazz fan and an amateur drummer (we have a small group playing standards )I was missing your intelligent and subtle comments. The Italian Musica Jazz monthly enabled me now to follow you up.
Keep swinging and good luck.
Mario Lago
Keep swinging and all the best.
