Slim Gaillard's Civilisation: Part 3 - My Dinner With Dizzy (1989x17)

Data de estreia: Nov 05, 1989

This week Slim Gaillard cooks dinner for his old friend Dizzy Gillespie. They discuss the English language and their contributions to it - "bebop" and "Vout-o-reenee". They also recall working with Charlie Parker, and conjure up the ghosts of the other great names of 52nd Street in its jazz heyday. And from Hollywood - memories of the days when the likes of Bob Hope and Marlene Dietrich were swapping items from Gaillard's Vout-o-reenee dictionary.
