Myra Melford, new to me (for some reason). Why don't I know him? Of course I know Billy Bang, but also not familiar w/ John McCowen. Bubblyfish is an old friend of mine, can't wait!

Myra has been in California for years now but she was a major part of the downtown scene 80s-90s.

When I first moved to NYC, I saw Billy Bang at Stonewall. I had to ask, is this THAT Stonewall?!!!! Indeed it was. Memorable show!

I think last Friday Doug Schulkind said that he thought musicians who groan and sing while they play is a sign of greatness.

Muhal also. And then there is the wonderfully silly controversy over Glenn Gould "ruining" his Bach recordings.
