If you are curious about that walking backward guy (pictured), here is some more info: Plennie L. Wingo walked backwards for 12,875 km (8,000 miles) on trans-continental walk from Santa Monica, California to Istanbul, Turkey, 1931-32.

Here's the interview where Goodman describes McLaughlin opening up Annan Brahma on 164th St in Queens (after his stint in Miles' band). Goodman and McLaughlin would perform for patrons, developing their interplay, and setting the foundation for the Mahavishnu Orchestra. The restaurant is still open.
