He began playing tenor with his own band in the late 50s and moved to Rome with his Italian born first wife Michelle in 1962, where he began collaborating with Cherry
Franco D'Andrea: Il pianoforte come sintesi di colori
by Paolo Marra

Various Artists: New Improvised Music from Buenos Aires

A fine example is Life's Intense Mystery by the trio of ...
