Mikhail Tal, genius on and off the board

An anecdote that illustrates Tal's wit and sense of humor. During the closing ceremony of the Leipzig Olympiad (1960), Bobby Fischer had prepared a joke for Tal, who was then World Champion. Bobby claimed he'd been studying palmistry and grabbed Misha's hand: "I see that you will soon loose your title to a young American", he forecasted. Tal immediately turned to Lombardi and said: "Congratulations, Bill". Everybody bursted in laughter.

@Mark_Stryker @bluenoterecords I am a Tony Williams maniac and I think Air Raid might be the best thing he ever put to record

John Coltrane draws a picture illustrating the mathematics of music.

Physicist and saxophonist Stephon Alexander has argued in his many public lectures and his book The Jazz of Physics that Albert Einstein and John Coltrane had quite a lot in common.

I’ve seen multiple people in my mentions talk about wanting to sign up for the PDGA. I recently just hit 4K followers and want to hook some people up!

I’m going to select a few random people that retweet this and hook them up with a membership for 2022!!

@Mark_Stryker Mark, I discovered this album in the Blue Note Detroit playlist that you curated. It's fantastic! (this album, but the whole playlist, too!)

[Lawrence Nagel @LANagel]

@GHusband Grachan Moncur III Evolution might be my pick. Air Raid in particular!

[Blue Note Records @bluenoterecords]

The brilliant drummer #TonyWilliams was born on this day in 1945. Tony made his debut as a leader on Blue Note in the mid-1960s with 2 adventurous albums—"Life Time" & "Spring"—and returned to the label in 1985 for a run of magnificent quintet albums: https://t.co/xjYJWC6blT
