Check out "Jazz immortal" he could play circles around miles.
Too bad he died at 25 we never found out his true potential.

I'm a huge Clifford Brown fan. I can hardly fathom what music would be like today if he hadn't gotten into that car. BTW, Scott Lafarrow, the bassist for The Bill Evans Trio, AKA the upright player on Portraits in Jazz, also had an untimely death via a car accident, and is from my hometown. I used to drive past the scene of his accident daily on my way to school.
