Hey everyone, it's been a while since I've SOTWed, but that's what happens when you're a college junior...

And yes, that's the First Lady of Jazz walking in in the middle of the clip.

Thanks for any info!

Eddie Harris really rocks, I think he must be one of the most groovy saxophone players there ever was... "All the way live" with Jimmy Smith is one of my favorite records.
