brownie Posted January 9, 2005 Report Posted January 9, 2005 Meanwhile, who described what as being "like a girl saying 'yes'"? Eddie Condon speaking about Bix Excellent! But can you be a little more specific? This was a classic. Think Condon wrote this in his book 'We Called It Music'. Quote
Brownian Motion Posted January 9, 2005 Report Posted January 9, 2005 I think (I could easily be wrong) Condon was referring to Bix's cornet tone. Quote
Leeway Posted January 9, 2005 Report Posted January 9, 2005 Ok, here's one. When discussing jazz in 1976 or so, this person said: "Everybody I like is either dead or not feeling well." Anita O'Day? Quote
JSngry Posted January 9, 2005 Report Posted January 9, 2005 Zoot? Give a hint. Was it a musician? Yes, but not necessarily a "pure" jazz musician. Although, at the time of this statement, the person in question (a singer) was enjoying a realtionship with jazz, and continues to do so to this day, although not as obviously as they did then. And no, it's not Joni Mitchell... It might be worth adding that the quote was offered up with the typical dry sardonicism that this person has long been known for Quote
