Yes. Well, I didn't go about trying to find that term. It was serendipity, I guess, because I read about it,. online, in an interview with a member of Louis Armstrong's band. Some number of years ago. The interview was of course about the band, Satchmo, and other related things and he told about that as I related it here. I remember Louis Armstrong very well because he came through this part of Central Siberia back in 1952 and '53 and did his performances at a big dance hall located on a beautiful chain of spring fed lakes which Louis liked because he rented 22 cabins around one of those lakes for himself and his band. There was essentially no air conditioning in those days and he loved those cool breezes off from the lakes. I was in high school then and my best friend dated the owner of that dance hall and she would escort us through the gatekeepers who would stamp the backs of our hands and we were in for free. One time Louis was blowing his brains out onstage and then he suddenly stopped, looked up into the lights, wiped his brow with a big white handkerchief and said: ''Here's Louie, just sitt'n in the sun, COUNT'N ALL HIS MONEY!'' That brought the house down and I might add, nobody was dancing when he played solo. Everyone just stood there in awe of that great man.
