Philly Joe Jones vants to suck your blood.
Something about the historically inextricable relationship of novelty and jazz goes here.
Quoth Philly Joe Jones — "the bebop vampire" — in an awkwardly long, but ultimately-endearing-in-a-delightfully-tacky sort of way: "The children of the night make such beautiful music."
Happy Halloween everyone.
