| When Lee Morgan moved back to Philadelphia, he sometimes borrowed one of my horns, a large bore red brass Bach 25 bell horn. It sounded just like Lee when he played it.
Freddie played an ancient Bach of mine in my Village apartment. We were both lucky to survive that insanity. It was 4 am......... Freddie could have gotten us killed. Sam Krauss played the same old Bach for me.....in Philadelphia and at about 3 pm in the afternoon. Sam sounded like Sam, just as Freddie sounded like Freddie when they both played that old Bach.
It is the man behind the horn, not the horn.
