Ed Blackwell play a saw solo with Mingus, but still pretty strange stuff.

there are two aspects to that statement that i'm very interested in!  first, when did you see blackwell playing with mingus?  i though danny richmond pretty much played every mingus show for the last thirty odd years of the band.  second, obviously, is when did blackwell statr playing saw?  i wonder if there are any recordings...
