"Open Sesame" is a big favorite of mine.

Hubbard is just as great, in his own way. He has a brighter, harder sound than Morgan, but man, they could both play. (Another great one from Morgan is "The Gigolo," if you're looking for other albums. An early one called "Candy" is also terrific.)

He was absolutely brilliant. The Sidewinder and Search for the New Land are two of my favoites.

There are no truck drivers named "Jeeves."

I live 1 1/2 blocks from the apartment where he wrote most of his songs here in New York City- the cul de sac on which it's situated is now called "Thelonious Sphere Monk Circle."

That's not enough work for me.

Yeah, I was with him for a while there.

No shirt, no shoes, you must be Iggy.

Reed was awful fit himself, given what he put himself through earlier. I saw him a few times in the late-90s, and he was always surprisingly toned and muscular.

I think it's because he got rested during the several years when he was hardly ever standing.
