His passionate improvisations are marked by a consistency of strength in every register and a penchant for harmonic development." Bill Milkowski Downbeat Review

What a cat!
Locker room talk?
I like it, but ... the statement about taste in women is outright stupid.
In 1950 it would still have been sexist - but now?
Please!!!
There's great wisdom in this video and you focus on the 1 thing that had no real context at all, finding women attractive is sexist now? I think you should be watching SJW's videos, I dont know what are you even doing here.
😂😂😭 I was going to jokingly post something #metoo related about Jerry committing the cardinal sin of finding the opposite sex attractive, but wanted to check the comments section first in case the woke triggered crowd watched this video in the last few years...
I'm sorry to say that you have dashed my hopes for humanity in a substantial capacity- next the sax will be sexist because it sounds like sex which is misogynistic therefore jazz is rape
