A very significant and historical
photograph: the last ever public performance by Kai Winding and J.J.
Johnson.
In Eschwan 's own words: "[Here are]
Kai and J.J. playing in a reunion that only the Japanese could
arrange. It was a tour of the All-Stars. It had been 25 years since
they played together and it was the last time I saw Kai perform. It
was in the Yokohama stadium which held about 25,000 people. What a glorious day."
