Really fantastic and fun... I need to dig into Gil quite a bit more than I have thus far.

oh yeah, and that reminds me, always liked The British Orchestra, with Ray Russell soloing on "Little Wing," and a lot of other UK musos I hadn't heard---story of that British tour, also subsequent DVD of Gil w Russell's group at Montreux! https://stuartnicholson.uk/gil-evans-the-british-orchestra-classic-modern-albums/

The reporting of this has been very coy about using Ray Russell's name - I assume on instruction. Also typical of the BBC not to release the full clip.
