This chapter is named after a 1947 Ella Fitzgerald song, which is actually a cover of a song from a 1940 Broadway show called "Two for the Show".
After Ella's version, it went on to become a well known jazz standard. You can listen to her original version below.

So I’m imagining his solo kicking off something like this: https://youtu.be/BvAAUyDHFmg?t=8m47s. Loud and aggressive, though significantly less refined. I can see that going over like a fart in church at a casual jazz venue.

Yeesh. I would kill myself if I got humiliated like that. The worst that ever happened to me in a performance were only minor mistakes that casuals probably don't hear. This is why you should practice once or twice with the group before performing.
