But one night that I remember, we – Freddie Redd couldn’t come. Something happened, and I got Walter Davis. So me and Walter went and got high before we came down to do the show that night. So Walter was coming. He was like, “Yeah man, I’ve always wanted to be on the stage. This is something I always wanted to do. This is a real thrill for me.” I said, “Yeah, but Walter, look. All you got to do is play the piano tonight, man. Don’t do anything, man. This is your first night here. Don’t . . .”
