They were born in October
Papper Adams, 1978 Jazzmen and composers born in October make up a unique cohort of talents. Minubassists and baritone-saxophonists, for obvious reasons, people of high stature. Or almost. I remember the smuggler of Ahmad Jamal on the stage of the Audience Shatle in the womb of Paris, James Kammak. A very solid uncle! Jerry Malligan, who, in his youth, similar to the marine infantryman, who escaped from his father, a church pasteur, was clearly not a shorty.
