Sad news today: Graham's Great-grandfather Walton (my grandpa) died after a period of escalating illnesses. I'm sad, not because he got relief from his many ailments, but because he's gone from the world. He was a surprising guy- when we went to New Orleans together, he not only knew OF many of the musicians we went to hear, he knew them, and they knew him. One trumpeter told me that my grandpa new more about classic New Orleans Jazz than anyone he knew. 

Here's a clip of that same trumpeter playing  (thanks, Interwebs). Enjoy a little in memory of my Grandpa.
