RE: Other things in vaults....



could he have unreleased photos or film of the '75 Jazz festival that JPJ took
Bonzo to see Count Bassie's [sic] band and where JPJ performed
a set with Etta James ?

Basie '75 'all-star jam' set video has been released as part of an excellent series of Montreux Jazz DVDs:

above is just a small-ensemble 'All-Star' jam session with Basie featured on piano - not his Big Band. many of those '70s Montreux sets' audio were originally released as live LPs on Norman Granz's Pablo label - here's the live album/CD of the 1975 Count Basie Big Band [separate, and presumably the one JPJ and Bonzo attended] performance:

don't know about Etta James' set from '75 Festival but it might've also been recorded/videotaped ....
