(Roy Eldridge por William P. Gottlieb)
As far as I know, I never play a tune the same way twice. Sure, you play a number a lot of times, and certain little things get set. But the overall feeling is never the same. That's why it's such a drag for Coleman when they always ask for Body and Soul. He made a record of it – and now they want him to always play the same thing. It's just not possible.
I guess that's why I don't like studio work. I'll play something, and the cat says 'That sounds good. Write it down and do it that way on the show!' But when the show goes on, I don't feel the same way. So it doesn't come naturally.
