    Hey Calvin I remember when you were at PITT getting your masters in Ethnomusicology. I was there studying engineering and was in the concert band three terms to get one elective! I was also in the jazz band one term with you, I think Kenny Thomas, Mona Riscoe, Karen Braithwaite all tried out or were in the band. I met and played with Dan Wasson in a group I had and he played in the jazz band after I left.- kevin hurst p.s. I remember you loved Dexter Gordon!

    My cous out in Cali Charles Lumpkins recommended you to me when I told him I am relocating back to Pgh., I told him I knew you in the 70s! My late uncle was a Dexter man and I learned his tunes back then and am glad I listened to him because I learned Coltrane, Bird and Rollins before I listened to their playing. Along with Stanley T and Grover I listened to their playing first and should have with the masters.
    I have been playing soprano exclusively since'96 but got a tenor and a flute ('90) so I am a multi again! Here is some Dexter- kev
