duaneiac Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) Dr. Elwood "Woody" Wong, the inspiration behind the above number, passed away at his home in Palo Alto, CA on Dec. 5th according to an obit printed in the San Jose Mercury News yesterday. Dr. Wong was 90. As a dentist, he served a number of notable musicians including Woody Herman, Stan Getz, Sonny Stitt and Richie Cole. He was the brother of the jazz writer/broadcaster/educator, the late Dr. Herb Wong. Edited January 7, 2019 by duaneiac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought the chart was inspired by Herb, who was a Herman fanatic and used to carry a leather case (a "bag") with him to the band's appearances.

I always thought the chart was inspired by Herb, who was a Herman fanatic and used to carry a leather case (a "bag") with him to the band's appearances. See, the story I read somewhere was that it was written in honor of Dr. Woody after he had performed some very successful and much needed dental work on Woody Herman himself (and maybe one or two members of his band at that time). Most people assume it was written in honor of the more prominent Dr. Herb. Of course, maybe that's completely wrong. Perhaps some one like Marc Myers could contact the Wong family in the coming weeks to get them to clarify the matter. Sounds like the story of the Wong brothers would make a good column for his blog.
