Unless you've lost muscle control. I like him, too.

But Armstrong, man, Armstrong... Coltrane may have been the reason I took up the sax, but Armstrong was the reason I was sad I never took up the horn. Though both of them make me a litte sad I ever put it down. Not that I'd ever be great, but they taught me how to release my heart through my embouchure, and I miss it.

Umm, oops. Yeah, I was thinking of Gillespie. I do that a lot, whenever I hear "Satchmo", Dizzy's cheeks are the first image that comes to mind.

That's okay. Since Satchmo is short for Satchel Mouth, the mix-up is understandable.

Yes, I know, which is why I get confused.

Oh... sorry, most people don't. They just think "Satchmo" is some funky jazz nickname, so I figured I'd throw that out. I guess I should try to check my zeal about jazz history a bit. Didn't mean to sound like a know-it-all.
