"Irving Stone was a fixture on the downtown music scene since the mid-seventies. Every musician knew and respected this longtime music aficionado who had seen everything from Bird with Bud to Dolphy with Trane. His presence at a gig always meant that this was THE hip place to be. His passing in June 2003 was a great loss to the community. This special two CD set features highlights horn the touching twelve hour musical tribute held at Tonic." (label info)
