Kategorier:

Jason Crane interviews Laurie Pepper, wife of the late alto saxophonist Art Pepper (1925-1982). Laurie has recently put out two sets of previously unreleased live recordings by Art Pepper -- Unreleased Art, Vol. 1: The Complete Abashiri Concert -- November 22, 1981 (Widow's Taste, 2006) and Unreleased Art, Vol. 2: The Last Concert (Widow's Taste, 2007). Both concerts show Pepper at the height of his emotional expression, and still very much in command of his instrument. In this interview, Laurie Pepper talks about the concerts and the process of releasing them, and also gives insight into the troubled and triumphant life of her husband.
