I was there in Newport for that weekend. The wonderment of Jo and his pals has remained with me to this day. And I had the pleasure of expressing my gratitude to George Wein for establishing the festival in '54. They swung with such incredible joy! They played for the audience and only for each other.

Does Roy also play drums?
I couldn't figure out what parts he played.

Oh my God! This is so hot I can barely touch my UA-cam dial. They didn't call him Papa Jo for nothin. Aww that would be nice to go back-in-time to see these serious pro jazzers play live. ❤
