This piano player was also here with Billy two years ago and his playing was melodic and beautiful, the perfect foil to Bang's folky abandonment. Garth Fagen choreographed a dance to the haunting "KIA/MIA" and it was the highlight of the set here. Billy said he spent eight years with Sun Ra's band and he performed a song he wrote for Sun Ra called "Jupiter's Future". He was with Sun Ra when we saw them at Red Creek back in the seventies. - photo by P Doddy - click photo to advance > next
