One of the greatest jazz trumpeters of all time, Dizzy Gillespie dazzled the world with his talent as one of the pioneers of be-bop and Latin jazz, but with his puffed-out cheeks, bent trumpet and quick wit, he also was a great showman. Here he demonstrates his stunning style as he bops, scats, croons and dances his way through a collection of his music, including 'The truth', 'A Night In Tunisia' and 'Dizzy's Blues'. A special treat on this program is the blues based guitar of Eddy Cherry offsetting and enhancing Gillespie's always innovative, always exciting trumpet sounds.
