Love Tony Dagradi's solo. I was fortunate to have Tony as a teacher at Loyola in NOLA 1991/2 years and pleasure to see and hear him live countless times over 10 years I spent living there. He is still one of my guiding lights how to play sax. Tremendous player, composer, arranger and artist. Great human being as well.
Over the past 40 years, I must have listened to (various versions of) this song at least 20 times. Every time I find it so beautifully intense and heartbreaking!
A beautiful song of Carla's. Steve Swallow on bass; Tony DaGradi on tenor sax solo.Gary Valente on trombone.Mike Mantler- trumpet.Carla Bley- piano.Steve Slagle - alto sax.Vincent Chancey- French horn
What a fantastic performance by Tony Dagradi on tenor sax! He had an amazing ability to sustain the intensity over a long solo. It's even more intense than the earlier performance (December 1980) on Carla Bley's "Social Studies" album.

A classic performance. Every version of this I've heard by Carla is a classic.

David Lasocki Credits say he is Steve Sagle. Anyway great performance
Slagle was black. Its Dagradi.
you are correct in that the tenor solo is Tony Dagadi - but Steve Slagle is the white guy playing soprano
@@MarkHurwitt Mark is right.
@@AllotedDave Nope. Slagle on alto.; DaFradi on tenor.

So sad, so beautiful...
..but on tenor sax is not Steve Slagle who staying left with soprano sax. Tenor soloist is Tony Dagradi!

Can confirm, Tony Dagradi on tenor.
Anyone know what kind of clip on mic Gary Valente is using? I'll wait (probably years)
Not Steve Slagle. Tony Dagradi.
