Trivia
When playing, Dizzy Gillespie's cheeks would expand to extraordinary size, ballooning out far more than the average horn players do. This feature is so pronounced that there is now a medical condition named after this anomaly. Because he was the first, for all practical purposes, to have demonstrated this condition, and because since its recognition by the medical community there have been others who now exhibit similar symptoms, this condition has been officially named "Gillespie's Pouches".

Citas
We have to play a benefit tonight for the B'nai Brith and the NAACP. It's sponsored by the John Birch Society, the Ku Klux Klan, the Catholic Youth Organization and the YMCA and it's being held in the Greyhound Bus Station at Jackson, Mississippi. (humorous and sarcastic statement made in the early 1960s during C.O.R.E.'s attempts to desegregate interstate travel)
