The Kidd night would go down in the annals of jazz history if there still was such a thing like the night Trane did Chasin The Trane or the week that Bill Evans Trio did at the Vanguard and Bill had to play with one hand because he hit a nerve while indulging his habit. Kidd blew his style for 5 hours and it was all amazing. Damn.
