    Somebody tell reviewer Terrill that Loose Ends is BACK at the capital fest! I'm sure he saw this article. I saw his review on them on the Back In The Day page. Great site!

    There is a Wayman Tisdale song I heard from a recording on the radio on 5/16 between 8 - 9pm as part of the Capital Jazz Festival. It is about 10 minutes long. What is the name of the song and does it come on a CD (OR) could you point me in the right direction ?

    Thank You,
    Ted
