	Mike Harris - Free Music Downloads, Videos, CDs, MP3s, Bio, Merchandise and Links
		Harris has actually earned his living as an optical physicist; the thing that makes him important to jazz is the fact that he recorded pianist Evans' live performances extensively and paved the way for some posthumous releases on Milestone/Fantasy in the '90s and early 2000s (including a lavish eight-CD box set).
		Harris went on to record countless Evans appearances at the Vanguard, and by the time the pianist died on September 15, 1980, at the age of 51, Harris' private collection of Evans' Vanguard performances was huge.
		But eventually, Harris realized that he was sitting on a cultural gold mine and got in touch with Fantasy Records (which owned the vast majority of Evans' non-Verve albums) about the possibility of the Vanguard recordings being released commercially.

		It is a truth universally acknowledged among artists in Toronto that Premier Mike Harris has wrecked the cultural life of Ontario.
		On the one hand, Ontario artists seem to spend their time accepting prizes, signing big contracts, and bragging about their international success; on the other, they claim they are living in dark times, starved by a mean, vicious government.
		The consensus in the cultural community is simple: We must live in hope that some day Harris will be defeated so that his successor can bring back the creative policies of the pre-Harris years, when sympathetic governments vigorously encouraged the arts.
