Music career

In the late 1960s Malick was a member of the band Listening.[1] Listening was signed by Vanguard Records in New York City when Malick was sixteen.

He played guitar with blues pianist Otis Spann, who invited Malick to live with his family in Chicago. Over the years, Malick backed up and toured with blues greats such as Muddy Waters, Big Mama Thornton, and John Lee Hooker. Later, Malick was a conductor and music director for the national touring company of Hair. Malick next joined the James Montgomery Band, recording First Time Out and High Roller, both for Capricorn Records.[2]

For the next twenty years, he made money at cards. He returned to music in the 1990s, recording Wrong Side of My Life (1998) and Sons of the Jet Age (2000). He won the W.C. Handy Award for historic album of the year in 2001 for the Otis Span album Last Call. The next year he released an album of recordings made with Norah Jones.[2]

gollark: What minifier do you use, by the way?
gollark: *considers squeezing potatOS installer into minified code*
gollark: Well, it does, but all the windows change.#
gollark: The trouble with palettes is that they don't interoperate very well. If some program wants to use X palette and is in a window in some fancy multiwindow system, oh dear, doesn't work.
