I saw Thad Jones and Mel Lewis in Ronnie Scotts in the early seventies and Dee Dee was so young then and so beautiful and the voice was out of this world. In those days you could see Ella Fitzgerald in that tiny, smokey club and get in at the last minute for 5 pounds...and sit down at the front...happy days!

Man, she could suckle a sick calf back to health...

Wonderful to see this. Thad wrote this majorly swinging chart for Ruth Brown, I think and teaches all of us how it should be done. Dee Dee is wonderful.

I don't know. Ron and Cecil are both there aren't they? Big head of hair on both of them whilst their sister is as bald as an egg.
trane1959 (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
do you think Cecil liked the bald, bull dog look?
