Don 'Sugarcane' Harris

stories and legends

There is no lack of anecdotes, but as the saying goes, "if you remember the sixties, you weren't there!"

The only time Don ever arrived exactly on time...

Don walks in with his violin announcing he was "ready to rehearse". At the leader's incredulous expression, Don asked

- "You said two o'clock sharp, right?" to which the leader replied,

- "Yeah but the rehearsal was two weeks ago!"

 

In a moment of typical pessimism, just after signing the best record deal of his career, Don said, "what difference does it make if you win the game? There ain't no prize..."

Regarding the new woman in his life, "If you go in a closet and close the door and turn the light on, that little 25 watt bulb is mutha. But if you open the door and go out into the sunlight, that little light in the closet ain't shit"
