Default Duke Ellington

Probably the most important Jazz musician around, and quite possibly one of the most important composers of all time. The more I hear about him, Duke 'Edward' Ellington is a man who is increasingly gaining my respect. Free spirited, 100% dedication to his craft. Masterful musician, and top rate pianist.

Found it very odd he didn't have his own thread, so I started one. Anyone else would like to share their thoughts?

Terence Hill, as recently confirmed during an interview to an Italian TV talk-show, was offered the role but rejected it because he considered it "too violent".

When Al Pacino was considered for the role of John Rambo, he turned it down when his request that Rambo be more of a madman was rejected.
Al Pacino = God
