                    [Summary] => Memory makes a mist of it all. Was I miserable when I first discovered jazz? Did I become cheerless after listening to Mingus’ Goodbye Pork Pie Hat or Coltrane’s After the Rain? Two tunes that communicate a parable of nostalgia and longing without the need for words. (It is quite a joy to hear ‘Trane, Charlie Parker or Wayne Shorter spin sweet and strange saxophone truths.)
