Steve Lacy RIP

Steve's gig with his sextet at the Crucible in the early eighties was my first encounter with the jazz avant - garde. After that I was hooked. IIRC the concert was part of a Contemporary Music Network tour and was presented by Anthony Wood who later went on to found The Wire jazz and new music magazine. Named after a Lacy composition the first issue pictured Steve on the cover. A jazz giant.
