That's after - my wife and I lived with my aunt. My aunt had a friend, a very close friend, and she lived with us. Her daughter was married to Duke Ellington. Whenever he came to town, he'd always come to the house and have dinner. I met him long before I got involved musically, but I got to know him from him coming to my aunt's house to have dinner. I met him for the first time that way. Then later on, when I moved to New York and got to know him - had been around the band and seen him at broadcasts and all that kind of thing - and I was in the middle of it. I was on 52nd Street then. I was in the class music, with the same class of all these people - that he offered me a job. He sent his - I was living on 129th Street in New York, and he sent his road manager around to ask me to join the band. He had - at that time he was using two bass players. He had made me an offer - told me what he was offering. I couldn't afford it, to go and play with him. As much as I loved his band and his music, I couldn't afford to leave 52nd Street for what I was making, to go work with him, because it was much - his offer was much lower than what I was earning with the trio on 52nd Street.
