Delaunay: "...is the second winner of the jazz poll, (undecipherable), Jackson... Now I think that better than any words the music will speak for itself." Parker: "Thanks a lot, Charlie." Jackson: "Charlie, I didn't want to interrupt, now believe me, it's not an interruption, but I'd like to add to that. I not only think that you're the greatest altoist, but the greatest instrumentalist right now, well, Mr. Music, Charlie Parker... Okay? I mean it from here. Okay... Hey, uh, would ya like to play a little thing you played at the Roost last Saturday night, little thing called 'Now's the Time'?" Parker: "Let's try it, Chubby." Jackson: "I'll take four, huh?" Parker: "Okay..."

"Gregory! Spotlight -- get on the floor! Okay, Gregory, spread 'em all out. Finale coming up. First, there's Shorty Sherock on the trumpet. Watch the way he takes off on 'I Can't Get Started with You'. He'll take a chorus-and-a-half, then they'll be a four-bar double break into the blues. Then it's every man for himself -- Bechet, Morton, Wettling, everybody..."
