Well, let me see now. When I was living in Paris he said to me ... or had the people send for me rather than do a concert with him in Scandinavian countries which also caused me to lose my job in Paris. I was only supposed to be up there for two concerts and I ended up there for three weeks with Charlie Parker. But, man, he was perfect, man, very intelligent cat, man. Speaks very well and played his buns off. All I can say is that he was a great cat, man, and all... lot of things make a cat turn... you see... couldn't be kind of strong to nudge him to realize that you can play so good and nothing happened really like it should happen, you know. When you see some other cats that are doing things and get more money than you get it kinda makes you feel kinda of funny, you know, you wonder what you are doing it for.
