such a pleasure to watch this session and hear Cyrus speak about his beginnings. His story about Betty Carter (Whom I adore) was just priceless - She would be beyond proud of him for sure - thank you so much for doing this - I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience :)
No, I haven´t, unfortunately, but he's among the best piano players in our days. Another great pianist is Benny Green. There's a video when both playing together and there's a funny "accident" with mr. Green.
Cyrus, its been years since I last saw you. I can't begin to describe how much I dearly miss you and the friendship we enjoyed. I hope all is well with you and your dear wife. God bless you all! Do you still work with Alvester and Christian?
