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.

Stan Getz? :g

And, while waiting for another one, I have another:

"Everything is so ugly now. I don't know what happened, with that music. It's political, it's angry - anything but musical. Where is it written that music should be unpleasant? Life is."

Google makes games like this pretty pointless.

Google can help but not always. Please tell me how you find the last two yet unsolved quotes over there.

EDIT: Also, I'm honored that the all mighty moderator chose this pointless thread of all the other pointless threads that have been constantly posted since the beggining of ages. :P

If you are capable of programming I have a few tasks for you so you could spend your time on something useful. :alien:

Who said it?

Maybe Miles Davis, sounds typical to him.

Ta-Daaa!!!

You're good! This is the second you guessed correctly.

It was Miles Davis in a Blindfold Test - but the track played to him was by Buddy Collette ... :g

I'll play. Everybody knows this:  Who called who "Half a motherfucker"?

Miles to Pee Wee Marquette, MC at Birdland.

It may have been Miles, but I heard it was Pres.

Have we any witnesses present? :P

And in addition to this: is P. W. Marquette still alive?

Noone like to try -

"Everything is so ugly now. I don't know what happened, with that music...."

Not to take anything away from Ztrauq, but I posted Miles back on January 5, and JSngry right after, so don't we get any credit? :huh: I don't expect to win too many of these you know ^_^

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

Leeway you are right, the credit is yours.

BTW I posted a compilation of Blindfold Tests some time ago and Miles' was there

I remember Tadd Dameron saying something like that ...

Ok, here's one.

When discussing jazz in 1976 or so, this person said:

"Everybody I like is either dead or not feeling well."

Philip Larkin?

Art Pepper?
