Sad and belated news from Jack Vincken today to hear about the Jan 2nd passing of Chris Daniels and the curtain now closed on a #Toronto institution and Canadian #tradjazz legend, the #ClimaxJazzBand.

But the music carries on…

This band was house band upstairs at the Brunswick House. Saw them there more times than I can count in the 70s and a couple of times Earl 2000s at Chick 'n' Deli which was walking distance from where I lived.
