March 30, 2025: Marilyn Crispell Supreme
Classically trained, but taught at an early age to improvise, Marilyn Crispell of Philadelphia was earning a living playing for modern dance troupes when she one day had an epiphany listening to John Coltrane's "A Love Supreme." Thus began an astounding new journey for her. Let's explore it today. Her birthday.

' Marilyn Crispell (born March 30, 1947) is an American jazz pianist and composer. Scott Yanow described her as "a powerful player... who has her own way of using space... She is near the top of her field." Jon Pareles of The New York Times wrote: "Hearing Marilyn Crispell play solo piano is like monitoring an active volcano...

fred, Crispellini aren't cocktails, they're cookies. They go very well with Glen Passaic. And by "go," I mean dissolve instantaneously with a satisfying puff of smoke.
