This features Ed Thigpen on drums and Ella Fitzgerald's husband, Ray Brown on bass.
Pemberton's at it again.
I wanted so bad to be a jazz radio DJ.
I applied for a job at WBZ in Chicago because I wanted to live in Chicago.
That was my dream to live in Chicago.
But I didn't get a job there.
I guess I started when I moved to L.A.
I mean, I always knew I really wanted to do it, but it was one of those things where, like in Minnesota, I didn't grow up around anyone at all who even knew someone who did that.
I knew my dad had a friend who was funny.
His name was Glenn Fisher.
He's the only guy in town.
But he wasn't even in town.
He lived in Nashville.
