I have a pretty "preppy" background, but my first taste of true Ivy was several years ago when I was trying to emulate the look of my jazz idols, and it stuck. My peers and professors call me "Joey Bowties."

Vinson's stuff with Etta is great, and he also paired up with Cannonball Adderley for a few records in the early '60s. He sat in with plenty of jazz greats over the years.

This is playing on the hi-fi while I'm drinking bourbon and the smell of fried okra is wafting through the house. Mrs. WM is dancing around in her sun dress at the stove.
