| I remember Mr. Jacobs saying his chops hadn't felt good in months.
He sounded like the worlds greatest brass player.
He practiced like one as well. I got to the studio early once, he was down at that Greek restaurant so I went up. His tape deck was on, so of course I re-wound his practice session. Schlossberg 97 and 98 in several keys, just fast, clear, flawless.....one cuss word or two at one point...octave leaps perfectly in tune, light as could be...one breath....time to practice!!
