This part features Doc telling about hearing Ziggy Elman with the Tommy Dorsey band in 1941 playing “Well Git It”. Before the opening intro of the tune ended Doc knew what he wanted to do for the rest of his life. At the end of the video I included a video of Doc playing that very tune with the Tonight Show band years later.
