He was an amazing talent. I met him once at the Bama Theatre in Tuscaloosa in the late 70s. He played 2 nights there. I worked as a stage hand and lighting hand there. After they rehearsed and set up, Dizzy was sitting around joking with all of us like he was one of the hands. Funny as hell.
But when he played, he was in a class by himself.
Helluva concert in an old vaudville era theatre.

Wow what a treat. It's not every day you get to meet a true American master.

Our jazz station was playing some Dizzy in celebration of his birthday. This one cracked me up.

Yes I have but I prefer Tin Tin Deo, I have to say that Jools Holland was just being stupid with his questions.

It was very cool. I remember trying not to stare and gawk. He was one of the best.

This is the definitive version of Tin Tin Deo, Dizzy's tone is just impeccable.

Jools Holland was acting like a horse's behind.
Agreed, Tin Tin Deo is miles above The Land of Oo-Bla-Dee, which I'd consider a novelty song, sorta like "Disco Duck".
