@JL32 FTW. In the 1940/50s some really good musicians comprising the orchestras of the great transatlantic liners (nicknamed #Geraldo’s Navy) would take lessons with the legendary Manhattan based pianist #LennieTristano. So #PeterInd (bass) and #RonnieBall (piano) would study at 317 E 32nd St during the 3-4 week turnaround. Alan Broadbent too studied with Tristano (photo) but a generation later I think. Also he didn’t fully absorb Tristano’s rather stringent requirements.
