And I stood on that stage with Dizzy Gillespie on sound check on a Wednesday afternoon, and I said, "Dizzy, why would you come to a black-run center in the middle of an industrial park with a high crime rate that doesn't even have a reputation in music?" He said, "Because I heard you built the center and I didn't believe that you did it, and I wanted to see for myself.
Y me paré en el escenario con Dizzy Gillespie probando el sonido un miércoles a la tarde y dije: “Dizzy, ¿por qué vendrías tu a un centro manejado por negros en medio de un parque industrial con alta tasa de crimen que ni siquiera tiene una reputación musical? ” Él dijo:“ Porque escuché que construiste el centro y no lo podía creer, y quise verlo yo mismo.
