Jasbo, every man's jazz man, a legend in his own mind. He doesn't know music theory.
However, brazenly aligns himself with creative musicians who 'play what they hear.
He listens and hears what they play.

Dizzy Gillispie solos are often musically enhanced with a direct quotation. As an aside Dizzy plays a coda on his recording of "Groovom' High." Tadd Dameron heard it; utilized as the theme for "If You Could See Me Now."
