What a whirlwind on your part since May 26th. Great appreciation for all you do on this podcast.
As I was going through my 10 inch lp’s I happened to look up Bud Shank on Wiki, and found that 2026 is also his 100th birthday. I remember him primarily as he teamed up with Bob Brookmeyer on several recordings.
I was fortunate to hear and meet Sonny Rollins at our Clearwater Jazz Holiday in 1988.

Jelly Roll – his signature on his his draft card seems to match the handwriting over the rest of the card – so did the registrar sign for him, even though he was literate obviously, or did jelly fill the card out and sign it, or did they just have similar handwriting?
