Nice pic of Fred Hopkins! Saw him many times, going back to Air and Threadgill's Sextet!
(I blame everything now on allergies...)

david w:

I never saw that Air trio but the first album changed my life. And the allergy angle is a very good theory...

Dug all their albums, and they were quite a fine live band. I saw them a few times downtown.

Now you have to listen closely as Brandon is using the bow like when you blow through a blade of grass and make it whistle.

The great wall of David

Well, actually sometimes I think the Last Extravaganza is more like a pillow than a wall, but the stuffing may include mind-altering substances.
