Takes the interlocutors two minutes of bibble to get to the Desmond interview. Recorded not long before his death in 1977.
1965 album: Glad to Be Unhappy
Desmond, alto sax; Jim Hall, guitar; Gene Wright, bass (long-term Toshiko Akiyoshi and, later, Frank Sinatra bassist Gene Cherico subs on "Poor Butterfly"); Connie Kay, drums. One of several Desmond/Hall albums, and the DBQ bassist and MJQ percussionist making for an excellent rhythm section.
