On Thursday night, Murray said the cab driver told him he was a saxophone player.

“I said, ‘When do you practice?’” Murray recalled. “He said, ‘I drive fourteen hours a day.’”

Murray then offered to drive himself home while the driver performed for him from the backseat.

“Not only did he play all the way to Sausalito, which is a long way, we stopped and got barbecue,” Murray said. “He (wound up) playing in what some would call a sketchy rib place in Oakland at 2:15 in the morning … It was great and it made for a beautiful night!”
