June 2 | The Fringe
Tenor-saxophonist George Garzone, a well-respected educator at Berklee and a versatile improviser, formed The Fringe with bassist Richard Appleman and drummer Bob Gullotti in 1978 to have an outlet for free and open improvisation.
Between 1978 and 1982, the original unit recorded three albums for their Ap-Gu-Ga label.
At the time of their fourth release for their label in 1986, John Lockwood was the band’s bassist. With this lineup they made additional recordings for Popular Arts (1989) and Soul Note (1992).
The Fringe has been very popular in the Boston area and continues to perform today, 40 years after their debut.
