The hall only seats 1000 so it was full of eager listeners. It was not a school function, but a promotor event with tickets selling for rather expensive price, iirc. They packed a full blast rock show on the stage with lights and everything. His book in 1977 was mostly disco and electric jazz. They released 3-4 records in that one year, Columbia thought Maynard was their jazz crossover ticket. The junior high was the biggest and nicest hall in our town, probably in any of the surrounding towns, but I still look back and think holy shit! Maynard came to my school at the peak of his power and popularity. Gotta dig out some of those old records later...
