[Editor's Note: With Jim Hall's passing on December 10, 2013 at the age of 83, we thought we'd share this gem from our archives. It first appeared in the FJ's 12th issue.] I’m older than Jim Hall was when I first met him. I guess it was in 1971, or it might have even been 1970, and he came to Denver to play the Senate Lounge. I had started taking lessons with Dale Bruning in 1969, and I had heard Wes Montgomery by that time, maybe a little bit of Kenny Burrell, but I was just barely getting into it. One of the first people Dale mentioned--amongst Charlie Parker and Thelonious Monk and all these people I hadn’t heard of--was Jim Hall.🗓️ Mark your calendar at The State Room.
