Larry Roland, bass player poem All the beautiful ones known and unknown dedicated to African American Jazz players
I filmed Larry Roland, a bass player who was playing with Giuseppi Logan giving Gisueppi a rest break with a solo performance.
Larry Roland read his poem dedicated to African American jazz greats, known and unknown. Larry Roland told me when I interviewed him after the gig that "Jazz", America's Art form was kicked off by slaves. Larry told me his concerns for jazz greats known and unknown some in homes, forgotten, with no health insurance. He expressed a real feeling for Giuseppi Logan. He told me jazz greats known and unknown are dying and their spirits come down...Dying quietly.
