Swinging Swede Posted January 2, 2005 Report Share Posted January 2, 2005 Not Buddy Greco, Cab or Louis. Actually I'm not sure it was meant derogatory; it may simply be that he didn't find bop as revolutionary as others did. The liner notes mention that he appreciated Dizzy Gillespie. He even recorded together with Dizzy on one occasion, so there you have another clue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcello Posted January 2, 2005 Report Share Posted January 2, 2005 Could it be Nat Cole? I'm thinking of the JATP recording. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bright Moments Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 thanks for that, but surely there is a better pic of norma out there!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catesta Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 thanks for that, but surely there is a better pic of norma out there!!! Good luck. I could not find any. Maybe someone like Chris Albertson would have one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swinging Swede Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 Need more hints? OK, he wore Brooks clothes and white shoes all the time, and was a most indifferent guy. Now I'm going to listen to some Reinhardt, and when I get back, hopefully someone has solved this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 OK, he wore Brooks clothes and white shoes all the time, and was a most indifferent guy. Can't be Jimmy Rushing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swinging Swede Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 Jimmy Rushing it is! Now I don’t need to use the line I had prepared about rushing off to work and posting the answer when I got home… Rushing can be seen playing alto sax and then falling asleep and dreaming away in a Basie video. In another he wins a dance contest by cheating. Hilarious stuff! Rushing recorded with Dizzy Gillespie on Duke Ellington’s Jazz Party from 1959.

brownie Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 My turn then. This one should not be very difficult. 'In my mind, where's the individual who's gonna come out and play for himself? Like, if you have thirteen people and the teacher teach all thirteen of them, you mean to tell me out of thirteen he can't get one individual? So that's the way I think.'

MartyJazz Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 Was it Phil Woods? After that one is solved, perhaps someone knows the answer to this one (not too difficult): "The motherfucker died before we could get even". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeweil Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 Very nice game. Until ztrauq22 takes his turn as the last winner, some little ditty to bridge the gap, an easy one: I can't tell ... All those white tenor players sound alike to me. Who said it?

Leeway Posted January 6, 2005 Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 Warne - would suit him well, but it was a very outspoken black musician who said that. Wasn't that Miles before a "Blindfold Test"? Then when he took the test, he got most of them wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
