"The Baked Potato" was a well known jazz club near Universal Studios. Does anybody know if Don Ellis ever played there? I have some Lp's Don Randi recorded with groups he formed at the "Baked Potato".
Randi scored "Up in the Cellar" and "Bloody Mama".
Sorry zip, I've been researching all over the place today, and can't find any reference to Don Ellis ever having played at The Baked Potato. Randi, yeah, but not Ellis.
I did a word search of the dissertation, which covers Don Ellis' life and career in some depth, but no Baked Potato. Would have been a great venue to see him in. That place is tiny!
