    I said it when he was alive and I'll say it now he's resting. That was one of the best improvisations I've ever heard. It blew Joe's very nice contribution out of the water. The variation, the emphasis on certain notes, the tone, the technique. Amazing. I've been coming back here for years. Brilliant.
