For everyone who isn’t a music major, this is Bird and this is the Duke. I’ll do my best to keep future instances of arcane jazz trivia to a minimum! The gal in the fedora is filling in for Jen while she’s indisposed.
@ macsnafu: I was going to use Beiderbecke, actually! But you’re right, he’s not so well known. I still say someone ought to make a buddy cop show called Frankie and the Bix.
What? No Bix Beiderecke? Okay, okay, that’s even more obscure than the Bird and the Duke. No more. I promise.

Ahhh Charlie Parker is a Golden God. Or at least a Golden Brown God.
