  • Forget all those kooky statements about fucking, this is one of very few Desmond interviews, and he is all there in this one: deferential, classy, articulate, gentle. If you want to hear Desmond at his best, you can listen to him with Brubeck, or, and I prefer this, listen to him in Toronto at Bourbon Street with Ed Bickert, Don Thompson, and Jerry Fuller. Surely one of the shining moments in the history of jazz.

  • @MJJBeliever yeah! I definitely agree, he died at a very young age unfortunately, but i will always love him!

  • @Yesiilikedrumso0 Yes! He was still a nice-looking guy when he was 50. But with alcohol and tobacco, I think that he aged too quickly. He is nice-looking here but he has the face of a 60 years old guy. Don't you think?

  • @604460 I agree! But we cannot put the sexy statements aside...you see, desmond was a sexy beast. I would've preferred him in the 50's when he looked his best ;)

  • YOU'RE a BITCH!  Mysoginist!!

  • Ah the good old days, when CBC TELEVISION deemed jazz worthy of exposure. Sadly this seems to be impossible in our 500 channel universe.

  • This was just a year before he passed away from lung cancer.

    A true jazz "gentleman" and incredible talent.

  • @donquijoteviva Nerds are great : )
