Hi, Ethan:

I know I am on thin ice but I couldn’t help — apparently — a brain storm of “the Chi Tri Try” — can you expertly create a medley that one-ups your fellow Blue Note recording artist Josh Redman (who we call Josh Shedroff, the nephew of Palo Altan Alan Shedroff) who has a mash up of Count Basie “(something) Chicago (something) and Sufjan Stevens “Chicago” by arranging such for solo instrumental piano PLUS adding in a quote from what I know of as track #16 -it actually says “3 16” on my player — which is cd #3 on my changer and track #16 — which is an allusion to the Christians and Rock’n Rollen – who is now apparently in prison — and my dear friends sons of the math professor Paul J Cohen who were here for Break the Fast — Christina Karls Cohen and Eric Cohen their birthday is March 16, 1964 Pisces – -feel me? In the style of sister Mary Lou, but it is actually Nat King Cole, whose brother Freddie I met with Henry Butler at Billy Taylor Dr Taylor to me may his memory be a blessing Christmas radio broadcast at Kennedy Center Dizzy — we should rename our federal district Dizzy like the man not DC the acronym — excuse the digression — dirge session — so that is a threesome of Nat, Basie and Sufjan– then we have to call the Stevie Wonder people and have them change the lyric to:

it’s Basie, Miller, Satch-a-Mo and the kind of all Blue Eice;

And you can tell right away at the letters E and I that the people are O so nice!

Weiss! Rhubarb, Rhubarb, Rhubarb — he mumbles behind his piano like Keith Silk Wilkes.
