Cool stuff! I just put on 'Round About Midnight" by Miles Davis in honour of your post. How cool would it have been to have a loft with all those folks just dropping in to play? I didn't see his name mentioned, but I know Bill Evans (my favourite pianist of the era and maybe of all time) was a regular there, too.
