Goodbye friends, I'm out of here. Disgusted by the owner of this platform, and the algorithm too, I’m relocating to Instagram and Threads. See you there.
RIP The great Quincy Jones, who kindly did the first interview for my book Sittin’ In: Jazz Clubs of the 1940s and 50s, hipped me to the fact that these were the places Jim Crow started to break down, and was so supportive of the book. I owe you!
