I've met and played with some famous (and some who SHOULD be) jazz musicians.
When I was 15-17 (1963-1965) I played lots of parties in Bel Air & Berverly Hills but did not know or care who I was playing for :-) The piano player (Betty Boop's son) in that band is now 'executive in charge of music for Universal Pictures' and has been for quite some time. Guess he's famous in some circles. Harry Garfield. We got the first job by way of The Rifleman's son, Johnny Crawford, who I never met.
