i remember seeing him on the ed you will van show one -- sullivan show one sunday night when i was 8very much. we expect him to be contemporary in a way that he is not. he wasn't. he was born in 1901 in the deep south, his whole formative experiences as a musician and stage entertainer is formed by the world of vaudeville and also the world of minstrel show and what he thought was funny, and i might add, what his contemporaries thought was funny, black and white alike, was something that the younger musicians of the post world war ii era did not find funny. theyful uncomfortable about it and they criticized him about it. dizzy gillespie, most prominently and most sharply, didn't take him in historical perspective and some of them lived long enough to change their tune, including, i'm happy to say, dizzy gillespie, who in his autobiography, written at the end of his life, apologized to him as describing him as an uncle tom. i will quote gillespie verbatim, he said hell, i had my own way of tomming. so now, we are as far beyond armstrong's life as gillespie was beyond the beginningings
