Just wanted to mention how touching it is to read and hear the many tributes to Hank Jones from around the world. Hank Jones was loved and respected in life and the legacy of music he has left here for us is a true gift.
KRML radio’s Jim Sintetos is broadcasting his 3 hour tribute to Hank right now and I’m hearing Hank with everyone from Artie Shaw to Benny Carter to, I’m guessing later in the show – Joe Lovano.
Once again, I feel very lucky to be alive right now and to know the beauty that is Hank Jones.
Speaking (or writing) of Hank Jones and Joe Lovano, here is one of JazzVideoGuy’s wonderful features on Hank and Joe:
