Jones/This is Bop, 5. A Mouthful of Hot Rice

Hendricks met his second wife Judith, and as with Colleen, the mixed marriage provoked racist reactions. Meanwhile the trio’s career went from strength to strength, as they recorded several more albums and toured the world. Hendricks wrote Evolution of the Blues, a stage show that ran for years in California theaters. Annie Ross left the trio. Jon and Judith had a child of their own.
