Hi!
No mention of Rahsaan in the book so far and can't find an entry in
the index.
It's a great read but the writer must have had the patience of a
saint. Her account of trying to interview Dexter Gordon in his hotel,
is hilarious:Randi Hultin eventually gave up waiting, and went home.
Only to find Dexter Gordon following her back and banging on her door
at 5.30 am.
He stayed with her for a couple of days, and one evening when Dexter
was meant to be performing live in concert, he locked himself in her
bathroom and wouldn't come out for an hour and a half!

Randi Hultin's memories of dealing with John Coltrane seemed to have
been less fraught, and there is also a section on Elvin Jones which
is interesting.

Glad to see the 48 minute 'A Love Supreme' has been released on CD.

Regards

Michael
