Thank you Toots. Thank you for all of it. You took the Chromatic to a high art form. I'm thinking that at some point in your association with Bird, a light went on and you took the Chromatic where it had never been, just like Bird did with the saxophone. R.I.P. sir.

Toots was a genius, but also a modest man.

Thank You, Toots.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to The Thielemans Family. Mr. Thielemans' music is legendary. I have heard his music on several movie sound tracks namely "The Getaway" starring the Late Steve McQueen. He will be remembered as a great artist.

I first heard of Toots Thielemans through Quincy Jones. Of several albums, "Bluesette" and "Velas" come to mind. Also, I remember that with Quincy, Toots won a Grammy.
It is a shame that most of the radio stations discriminated against Jazz sounding 45 RPM singles when I was young seeking these out. I do not remember any instrumental single by Quincy Jones charting in the top 60, although I found many that I had never heard.
I saw Toots on a Merv Griffin program either in the late 70's or early 80's. I found the 45 of "Bluesette" some years later.
Will any station feature any of his music like they did Elvis, John, Bob, Barry, Prince, or Michael?
I will believe it when I hear it.
