The Inimitable Dizzy
"Staying power. Dizzy Gillespie was the consummate professional over his entire career. A prime originator of Bebop along with Charlie Parker, he remained at the forefront of this internationally recognized art form throughout its ever-changing music styles. So it was practically a given that he would perform each year at Monterey — and I was always excited to capture him. How could I not be? He was a joy, starting with his funky trumpet bell on down."
