SLSL Intro "Honest Grief"

[Dave Monroe]

"I was in the navy at the time, but I already knew
people who would sit in circles on the deck and sing
perfectly, in parts, all those early rock 'n' roll
songs, who played bongos and saxophones, who had felt
honest grief when Bird and later Clifford Brown died."
(SL, "Intro," p. 8)
