Roberto, have you been reading my diary???

wondersofwine, Kenny G and Sonny Rollins--no contest. In fact, the G ain't in the running, at least not for sax. When I was a youngun' I had the fortune to grow up in NYC and I had the wherewithall to frequent the Village Vanguard, where I saw (and heard) them all. G would have been laughed off that intimate stage.

I once met Thelonious Monk in the men's room of the Vanguard. I asked him if he would play his version of Dinah. He said, "m,m,m,m,m,m,m,m,m,m,m,m,yu godit." And I got it on the next set, which cost me another drink. Monk's sax player, Charlie Rouse, would make KG cry.
