Is this just him getting even better over time, or has he worked out something in particular? He is amazing!!!
Higher does not mean better.
Wynton seems to be playing more efficiently these days, though he makes me crazy when he start moving his head from side to side while he is playing.Slide Hampton used to chew gum and play.........Slide could have been President with talent like that
