But neither Johnson nor Cleveland played OKOM (the latter - more so).

I still feel pain when I remember that the Ken Burns jazz thing (what was it called?) omitted mention of the great J. J. Johnson except for a photo of J.J. in a session with Miles Davis. But that is off the subject; Jimmy Cleveland was another great that too few got a chance to hear IMO.
