Dianne Reeves - Jive Samba lyrics

rate me

"Hipness is not a state of mind but a fact of life"

He used to say

A big man with a big alto sound

Folks affectionately called him Cannonball

A teacher, historian, a jazz griot, someone wrote

Cannon could blow a sermon with every note

Departed at the young age of forty-three plus three

But not without leaving us a rich jazz legacy
