Since Dizzy,he is the only trumpet player I've seen with a puff cheek (right) when he blows.
Is that the result of him storing air in the 'jowls' rather than the 'lungs' ?

I have a video of Lee Morgan and he puffed his cheeks out a bit. Don Cherrry too.

Funny about Portrait of Louis Armstrong, when I was with Barrett Deems I transcribed that off of New Orleans Suite, and played it maybe 100 times. Great tune. But I prefer Cootie Williams on the original to the various Wynton versions I've heard. Cootie really sounds like Louis while at the same time sounding like himself.
