They said Bird played bebop, but Bird could still swing. I've heard a lot of guys play bebop, but they wasn't swinging.
It was my first time in Kansas City. In about two or three days I had a gig at a place called The Monroe Inn. 
I had listened to Joe Turner. When they'd book Joe there, I'd play the blues behind him.
As long as Pete and Joe are there, it's gonna be jumping.
