I've seen a LOT of concerts in my life...but there's two people I've seen that have honestly left me BREATHLESS..."Dizzy" and Miles. That's it.

Real talk.

R.I.P. John Birks "Dizzy" Gillespie. What you brought the World can never be replaced. What you've spawned in jazz lovers hearts will live into eternity.

I love you man. I really do.

I have read some comments and my assessment is many have research to do. You don't know what you are dealing with. You are in the right the track....
