CP: "Thank you, thank you, thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen, and thank you Leonard. I mean..." LF: "Charlie..." CP: "...you forgot to mention this alto sax, yes, this is a gift from an Englishman, over three years ago..." LF: "Yes, I heard these things started in England. Do you think they're gonna become popular in this country?" CP: "Well, I couldn't say that. I have no comment that way..." LF: (laughs) Well, it's certainly wonderful to hear you play it anyway, Charlie. Maybe later on, everybody'd be playing it just because you started the plastic saxophone." CP: "I don't know about that, Leonard..." LF: "No. Tell us what you're gonna play with it anyway." CP: "Oh, well, at first I thought maybe it might be nice, since Dizzy and I are both working here on 52nd Street and Broadway, between 52nd and 53rd, places right next door to one another, that we play a tune that was first devised by the two of us years ago." LF: "Oh, I..." CP: "An old 52nd..." LF: "...think I know which one you mean." CP: "Which one? 'Groovin''..." LF: 'Groovin' High'?" CP: "High'", that's right." LF: "OK, let's go. And with the Milt Buckner trio..." Incomplete (0:22) on Philology
