Toots Thielemans

Tiets Toolmans or Stielemans,
whatever, the guy is 83 and survived a brain haemorraghe,
but tonight I saw him live for the first time and wow, can this guy still pull it off...
played harmonica with the greatest: Miles Davis, Dilly Gillespie, Goodman, Parker, Bill Evans...

accompanied by piano, bass, drums
and Toots on harmonica (also attempting guitar which is not obvious after his haemorr...)

great artist, funny and loveable guy.
