Art Taylor:: What does 'who chi coo' mean, and how do you spell it?
Erroll Garner:: Just the way it sounds. 'Who chi coo' is an expression that Sarah Vaughan and I used all the time years ago, because we were very good friends ... It means "magnificent obsession." If I dig what you do, when we're playing, you're a magnificent obsession; if I don't, I say nothing. So when I say "Who chi who chi coo," that means you really are a magnificent obsession.
