      [continued from previous message]              the only musician depicted in the 1958 photo whose autograph his father       hadn’t gotten before he died, but ends up stranded in a Kennedy Airport       terminal when he is denied entrance to the U.S. Mr. Golson appears as       himself when the Hanks character finally gets to New York and tracks him       down at a nightclub.              As a senior statesman of jazz, Mr. Golson implored younger musicians to       pay close attention to the history of the music. He attributed his       longevity as a musician to a restless creative spirit.              “Being satisfied is a curse,” he once said in an interview with Jim       Merod, the co-author of his autobiography, “Whisper Not” (2016). “You       tend to slow down or come to a stop. Just like having an ego problem.       That brings creativity to a halt. The ego only looks outside of itself.”                     © 2024 The New York Times Company              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
