Everything Day Logs

disco, in his original
Cuban method writeup, goaded me into promising a
Chano Pozo node for the morning (
all in good fun), so I did further early
spring cleaning, in search of a long 20-year-old magazine article written about him; for all his importance (
you're soaking in it), it isn't very easy to find good Pozo stuff merely by firing up
AltaVista. I failed to find the
magazine, so the node is more about what Pozo (and
Dizzy Gillespie) begat, since Pozo's
celebrity lasted only about a year or two, and was fairly
underground at that. In return for my
node, I get to do nasty, unspeakable things to disco with a Cuban
cigar - this made staying up an additional ninety minutes last night worth the lost sleep. I'm ready now to collect upon disco's end of the bargain. I have it in writing. We will post pictures later on.
