even more so. I remember eating beforehand with Bernie (Previn, trumpet) and Lou (McGarity, trombone) and everyone being in good spirits. There was a buzz on, we'd all had a taste and there was a great feel to the music." Condon toured and appeared at jazz festivals until 1971. His last public appearance was at the New School for Social Research in New York on April 1973 where he played with several of his regulars. The concert was recorded (Chiaroscuro Records CRD110). During most of his career Condon played and recorded using a four-string guitar. However he never made a solo with this instrument, at least not on record. Personal life Condon married fashion copywriter Phyllis Smith in 1942. They had two daughters, Maggie and Liza. Death On August 4, 1973, Condon died of a bone disease at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City, New York. He was 67. His funeral was held at Frank E. Campbell Chapel in Manhattan. He was survived by his wife and two daughters.
