Linc Chamberland

Re: Linc,
Linc used to teach the guitarist and bassist in out high school jazz ensemble
back in '73-'75.
Our two guys brought Linc in to "coach" the rhythm section. I liked him, he was
a great teacher who had a gentle way of telling you you were doing poorly, or
doing well.
Linc lived in Norwalk, Conn. and had a son, Scott, who was a pretty good Alto
player.
A lot of good players went to Norwalk High School: Adam Nussbaum, Rob Aries,
Billy Bickford, Horace Silver, Vince Mendoza. Also, John Scofield was from
nearby New Canaan; a real musical area of the country, Fairfield County was.

I wrote another book about teenagers during the mid 50's to the late 60's titled SUMMER DAYS HOT NIGHTS , Lionel our dear friend and the Orchids are in the book many times. It was lost to me that he and the band had almost reached stardom. Bad luck a car accident prevented them from being on the Ed Sullivan show, a tainted agent sold thousands from the group and Linc became introverted when it came to touring, Recording sessions teaching became his career lest I forget fishing? He really was something and that is why I m writing his story. I know next to nothing about music so please allow me to use your voices to keep Linc in the conversation and I will be entering him to the Ct music hall of fame, thank you in advance hopefully I will have the book ready before Christmas
