Hi Tony,

Thought I'd get the ball rolling here with some questions. Your discography contains lots of rock and pop albums, and I was wondering what those sessions are usually like.

For example, do you normally get charts, or are things sometimes made up on the spot? Are horns usually the last thing to get recorded? Have you ever come into a session like that with no idea what to expect? Is there a wide range of "professionalism" among those sorts of artists? Any favorites to work for? Lastly, how do residuals work for those kinds of recordings?

Any funny stories from a situation like this? (Feel free to name names - this is a trumpet forum after all!

)

Thanks!
