The great tenor sax man Illinois Jacquet died at 81. He played with just about everyone -- Cab, Basie, Dizzy, Miles, Ella, Louis, you name it. Think I'll throw on some old Count Basie stuff this evening and pop a bottle.

I missed that piece of news--thanks for the info.
The other day Emile Peynaud died at 91, in Bordeaux. He was a giant for the wine industry; an educator and scientist who truly revolutionized wine technology.

Saw the sad news. Cat played into his 8th decade and very seldom hit a bad note. Thank goodness for CDs'. WW
