RIP A jazz giant!!
Halligan passed earlier this week. This morning was when I heard it.
I'm complete on this band and would count them among my favorites. Bought all their Quads back in the day and upon rerelease on SACD. Have caught BS&T live several times, but never with Halligan, sadly. BS&T (2) would rank in my top 10 albums. Halligan was a huge part of that.
First, a track composed by Halligan from Don Ellis Orchestra's Connection album. BTW: Connection also features a rousing version of The French Connection theme, composed by Ellis:
Obits from Billboard & Variety. Listen to Redemption BS&T 4, Co-composed by Halligan in first article. KILLER!
