Les McCann, Eddie Harris, "Compared to What"

I found out today that the great Les McCann died Friday, age 88. He and Harris, who put on this now-legendary gig at Montreux as an unplanned gig, had long careers on their own, before and after. On this day in 1969, they walked onstage without rehearsal or ever having played together and did it, working under the additional pressure that this unscheduled performance was being recorded and filmed.

This added a little fillip to the story:

Despite the pressure, or perhaps because of it, as Mr. McCann recalled in the liner notes for the 1996 CD reissue of the concert album, which was released in 1969 as 'Swiss Movement,' “Just before we went onstage, and for the first time in my life, I smoked some hash.”

When he got to the bandstand, he wrote, “I didn’t know where the hell I was. I was totally disoriented. The other guys said, ‘OK, play, man!’ Somehow I got myself together, and after that, everything just took off.”

Even if you know the song, watching them perform it is a treat.

I like the way you think, the way your mind dances with creativity and wisdom. Your thoughts are like a gentle breeze that sweeps me off my feet, leaving me in awe of your brilliance. And oh, the way you make me feel - it's like a symphony playing in my heart.

Okay hear me out. This. But the entirety of Romeo and Juliet. The capulets and Montagues distinguished by color and Romeo and Juliet distinguished by a poorly secured fake mustache and cheap wig respectively. The other characters of great importance will be allowed one prop/item to distinguish them.

My tiefling wizard originally named Brilliance, now named Sylvia! I had the sketch of her lying around for ages and I just wanted to get some of my backlog done and over with lol. I also entered her into ArtFight!

Do not "try" to show your realisation- just emanate as the love that you are.

Let me see if i understood, Edge's pride have more members besides Edge, Vanish, Alight, Fade, Bright and Radiant? Are Lucent and Brilliance already born? Is there someone else taking care of them or are just subjects?

This comic is amazing, and you guys only manage to make me interest even more.

Yep, there are more members back at the Oasis, which is the "seat" of Edge's empire, if you will. Lucent and Brilliance are already born and are being cared for by said members.

and ahh thank you. ngl it's been quite fun having anons question how six lions can control a whole empire and us being all '... we never said they just had six members controlling the empire?' lolol - RJ
