Thanks for sharing O' Wise One.
Mr.Benny 'Big Brass' Bailey was a TITAN.
He was a frequent guest of Dr.Nathan Davis Jazz blow-outs held the first Saturday of every November at the University of Pittsburgh.
I think November of 2002 was the last time he performed in the 'Burgh and I'm sure the board archivist can find my post of Mr.Bailey glowing performance on that Nov 2002 date.

May he rest in peace .
