It's never too late to hear Cecil Taylor talk (nor play for that
matter)!
Which reminds me of an interview some months earlier (1963) with
swedish jazz journalist Claes Dahlgren in New York, which I digged up
in the archive in Stockholm, Svenskt Visarkiv, several years ago. As
clear and exciting. I transcribed [parts of?] it - maybe it should be
published somewhere too, if there isn't any copyright problem with it...
