A great story, Marshall. So many details that pack a punch, the glamour/misery of so many women artists treated as minor players in their own stardom. I wonder what went on later that night, when Astrud met Chet Baker on that San Francisco night.
Thanks for this wonderful piece. I’ve listened to her more well known work over the years but certainly couldn’t profess to know her music well. I’m looking forward to exploring her catalog a little more.
