Reference: FSRCD1645

The scene for Randy Westons Open House was the Five SpotCafe in Manhattan. The time, a rather dreary Monday in the Fall of 1959, andthe setting about as wild a scene as you will ever make.

The live performance recording was scheduled for that sameevening, but Coleman Hawkins was somewhere high in the skies between Chicagoand New York; Roy Haynes was taking a similar route through the sky fromBoston, and Wilbur Little and his bass were last heard from in Washington, D.C.Finally, Melba Liston, hospitalized in California, had air-mailed herarrangements for the datebut they had not as yet been delivered.

At 9:30 p.m. the missing musicians began to gatherKennyDorham, trumpet in hand, Hawkins and Haynes from their respective flights,Little from his train.

Shortly thereafter the missing arrangements were delivered,and a tall, rather relieved Randy Weston passed out the music. There was norehearsalvery little warm-up.

The results are on this albumand you can wrap them up injust two words... Fabulous Musicianship.
