I was listening to
WKCR last night, and they said that tenor saxophonist
Dewey Redman passed away this Saturday. However, I can't find anything on the web to confirm this, so either they were pulling my leg, in which case I put a curse on their houses,
or journos across the world have been too damn slow to write about it.
With reservations, R.I.P.
update:From what I've gathered, Mr. Redman did indeed pass away on Saturday, September 2 from liver failure. He'd also battled prostate cancer in recent years. Thanks to the kind people at
Jazzcorner's Speakeasy for the info.
New York Times piece.
