Big Sonny fan but unfortunately never saw him play live. I did meet him at Tokyo's Narita Aiport in 1995 , though . We were on the same flight from NY . I spotted him in line at immigration - he holding his sax case with Sonny stamped on the side . He and his small entourage were extremely friendly . What a thrill it was ! Here is one of my fave pics of him taken in Miyazaki , Japan at the beach in 1991. Miyazaki is the neighbor of the prefecture I live in , Kumamoto .
