The Vandermark 5 - Single Piece Flow
Some twenty years ago I was working for a museum here in Chicago, and so was Ken. I did not deal with him on a daily basis but did occasionally, and had a few conversations with him (usually about jazz). If I recall correctly he was very into Eric Dolphy at that time. There was always music playing in the office he worked in. It was obvious then that he was all about the music--listening to it and playing it dand thinking about it was at the center of life. He played and practiced a LOT. His music is not for everyone but you have to respect a man so dedicated to his craft.
