ROY HAYNES and his "SIDEMEN". Chick Corea. 9/17/10. Portland, Oregon

Roy Haynes drums (b.1925), on stage with Chick Corea keyboard (b.1941), Christian McBride bass (b.1972), Kenny Garrett sax (b.1960), THE FREEDOM BAND, takes the mic at the end of the show, after his vigorous drum solo and says, "Chick". I recorded more of Roy Haynes feelings. I have also seen another video on YouTube capturing Chick Corea introducing a song (with no title :) by pianist and composer Bud Powell. See them at http://hardchoicesblog.blogspot.com/ What a GREAT show on many levels. Thanks -Shawn Kirkeby
