Jae,
I am assuming this is the same Joe Jone who came to Savannah in '83 and lived and played here the last years of his life. He is in the Coastal Jazz Association Hall of Fame: http://www.coastal-jazz.org/cjahalloffameii.html. He is somewhat of a legend among Savannah Jazz fans.

Truly one of the funniest skits I've ever seen. Perhaps because as a drummer I experienced the exact same situation... on the same tune...Cos is talking about. Some... out of that older generation like to lay it on the younger folk when sitting in. I made that mistake years ago with the late great pianist Joe Jones. Maybe some of you heard of him. He was out of Virginia initially. Cosby is absolutely hysterical talking about his experience in this particular jam session but it's also obvious the man knows jazz. Hope you enjoy it.
