I changed my avatar - know who this is? |

Special prize goes to the first person who correctly identifies the bubble blower.
Ok, there is no special prize, just my undying respect.

This might be too hard. Should I give hints?

Died in 1993.
Played the same instrument as my last avatar, which is kind of odd, now that I think of it, since I'm a saxophonist. Strike that - WAS a saxophonist.
His bio was called: To Be Or Not To Bop

One of the greatest musicians to ever live.
EDIT: Damn, you got your hints in before my post. Is it scary that I knew this without the hints?

I always thought he didn't get enough credit for his time. Charlie Parker got more attention in the be-bop area, and then when Diz did the latin-jazz thing, everyone was too far into Miles' "West Coast Sound".

14. I had a long conversation with Ray Brown about that once |
|
He had the same opinion. Diz broke a lot of ground and never got credit for it.
Plus - he was such a funny guy. I was a jazz geek at a young age, and got to spend a little time with him when I was 16. He was a non-stop crack-up.
If I ever get them uploaded, I'll post some of the pics I took of him.

is no slouch either.
My mom was a die-hard Beatles and Motown fan. My dad only listened to jazz. I truly got teh best of both worlds. Probably why I'm a music major now.
