Yes, He played in a jazz fusion trio probably between 1977 & 1979. There was no guitar, although a electric bass player did some very funky popping stuff. I don't know who the two musicians were, that were with him. I don't remember much about the show, other than I was a bit dissappointed when I got there because I had just recently gotten into Jazz and expected to see him perform the music that he was known for. I'm guessing the third musinian was a drummer, although I can't be positive. I'm not sure whether it was the Warner Theatre or not.

What was Dizzy Gillespies Outstanding Accomplishments?

I just read Jonah Winter's book called "Dizzy" to my 5-year old son and was shocked to learn Dizzy's father was abusive to him as a child. Wanting to know more, I found the following passage written by Alyn Shipton: Mr. Gillespie's origins certainly did not presage a life of peace. Born in Cheraw, South Carolina, on 21 October 1917, Mr. Gillespie had a rough childhood. His strict father - a bricklayer and Saturday night musician - often whipped him, and the young Mr. Gillespie was correspondingly pugnacious. "I used to fight anybody, big, small, white or colored," Mr. Gillespie once said. "I was just a devil, a strong devil."
