I was just listening to Duke Ellington*** (in no way unsusual for a Tuesday night) and was thinking of perhaps the greatest compliment I ever heard anyone give anyone: Capt Beefheart was talking about meeting Duke one time and he said that Duke was wearing a diamond-crusted Rolex, the most expensive watch he had ever seen. But Duke had so much class he made it look like a Timex. *** The Queens Suite for those keeping score - I find later Ellington hopelessly underrated. This is one of his suavest and most satisfying compositions, dont you think?
