Notes
  • expost: Rockwell 1974: "Last Friday [June 28] it was announced -- on radio only -- that something called Merl Saunders and friends would be at the Bottom Line Monday and Tuesday [July 1-2]. The place was immediately sold out, another show added late Wednesday, and security guards engaged to repel the hordes. Scalpers reportedly enjoyed a field day outside the door".
  • review: [lukewarm] Mayer 1974: "The audience was well -tempered despite a late start for the first show Monday, and somewhat upset that there was no encore after a close -to -two -hour set played almost non-stop. The music itself was lacking in energy and direction. There were lines here and there which held promise, and there was one attempt at jazz/rock a la Weather Report but none of it developed into anything really interesting"
  • Nick: July 74: nothing's weirder than coming to New York
