yeah it is an import, for those that like his live albums it is a must have.

just on a trumpet level, it is on of the greatest feats of brass playing i have ever heard. I forget how long the first track is, but for anybody to be soloing like that for that long is amazing.

he has also recorded on a few CDs under his "other" name that are worth hearing.
