Thanks for posting. I only know some surface Elvin and jazz in general. The stuff I've liked from Elvin seems almost spiritual catharsis. Like it comes from outside him and is sent to his body and his effort is in letting his body be the only transducer for that spirit.
Interestingly enough Mel's name is Melvin!
I would think that is the case with all named Mel.
@@drummer78 I meant the phonetic connection between the names ELVIN and MELVIN, but yes, you are correct, Mel is the nickname for Melvin

Well stated, and an insight to the best of any jazz improvisor
