Ronnie Matthews' "Dorian" - 1965
Here is another performance by pianist Ronnie Matthews, taken from the first fund-raising marathon held in July, 1965 by New York listener-sponsored radio station, WBAI. This time, he is joined by bassist Michael Fleming and drummer J. C. Moses. The voice you hear at the very end belongs to writer A. B.Spellman, who was at that time working on his noteworthy book, Four Lives in the Bebop Business.
Here is a link to a previously posted Matthews performance, a solo version of Duke Ellington's Prelude to a Kiss. It is from that same marathon.
