Manny Laureano has a spectacular aura about
If you laugh I'll kill you.

First, thanks for the support, Wilmer. Coming from someone who was a first influence when we were both kids, (you were the older kid, ahem) that's high praise indeed. Gracias, mi amigo.

Here's the scenario:

I've just played a recital of my favorite pieces and the audience is expecting an encore.

They get it.

A band quickly walks on stage and every trumpeter in the room recognizes the first couple of bars...

"Dot da dahhh"

"Dot dadahhh."

Yup. Blue Birdland. And I want to play it just the way Maynard did on the Live at Jimmy's album 4 and 5.

All right, happy now?

Just call me Walter Mitty...
