"One of the CDs I picked out was the Antonio Carlos Jobim songbook and I'm thinking it's all him and his compositions and he's singing and playing and I looked on the back and it says Stan Getz, Sarah Vaughan, Billy Eckstine, Ella Fitzgerald, my hero. And then Oscar Peterson. I said I'm getting this."Watch this moment
"I got Horace Silver and of course I knew Horace Silver back in the day when I went to New York and he was cute. But I liked his playing. These were his biggest jazz hits."Watch this moment
