Don't know why this came into my head...I don't like these kinds of omens, but I imagine Cecil Taylor is around 75 yrs old now.  I presume healthy, but I don't know...he smokes an awful lot.  I do have a cyber friend who knows him.  Need to check.   Reg, you need to take a break from Bad Brad Mehldau, and slip on a little Mr.Taylor for a change of pace.

Here's an old interview I found that's interesting.   Any other Cecil admirers...send me an Email.
