I was at the Bradley's gig they talked about in the obituary. I'm a lifelong jazz aficionado and I had never heard of him. The bartender told me this guy Charles Thomas was booked ( who ?) and I better make plans to be there. And late set, just like it says , there were Kenny Barron, Mulgrew Miller, Harold Mabern and more in the audience. One if the Bradley's moments. Did you ever make that scene Michael ( Bradley's)? It was magical. Especially the 2 AM set

@@MichaelHeavner …No problem! Yeah he was always sharing information! Really great guy as well as amazing musician. MonoNeon is carrying the torch in a different way,but he has that gift like his grandfather.!
