Arthur Blythe Quintet Thanks to woessner for sharing the Arthur Blythe Quintet (New York) and Ran Blake show at Dime. woessner noted in 2013: On June the 3, 2013, [jazz saxophonist] Arthur Blythe went into the USC Keck Center to have a large benign tumor removed from his right Kidney. The operation was serious, as Arthur spent one week after the procedure in an induced coma in their ICU unit. His health has been a challenge for him for several years now. The Parkinson’s (Arthur has been living with Parkinson’s for eight years) has developed more rapidly and at this time he is in a rehabilitation center in Lancaster, CA. His goal is to be back home (?) within the next 30 days. The recent operation he underwent diminished his ability to walk and swallow foods. He is fighting hard each day to gain his strength back.
