これからニューヨークに行くところですが、そのニューヨークに住むボブ・ベルデンからとんでもない写真とメールが届きました。いつの間にかこんなこと、してたんですね。この写真を見て胸をときめかすひとはかなりのマイルス通です。で、以下の情報を見てぶっ飛んだひとも、マイルス通のなかのマイルス通でしょう。
Bob Belden, Pete Cosey, Michael Henderson, Adam Holzman(from left to right)

それにしても、マイケル・ヘンダーソン、ピート・コージー、バーダル・ロイとは。よくぞ集めたものです。さすがボブ!
Dear Takao,
This is the basic info on the project.
The label does not have a deal for distribution in Japan.
We have not presented the project as of yet. It needs to be completed.
There is no 'leader', just musicians......
I'm pushing for a 2-CD set.....
