| Doc,
From one Dr. to another: when I started taking lessons on trumpet, a meer Le Blanc Paris, I listened to, and wore out the grooves on the LP's of my two favorite trumpet players, you & Rafael.
The virtuosity of you two was, & still remains, perfection to me.
I've been able to re-acquire many of your LP's (yes, real records) in the last several years:
Night Journey, Swinging & Singing, High, Wide, & Wonderful, Sextet Live 67, The New Sound of Today's Big Band, London Sessions, Tempestuous Trumpet, Xebron, Strings, Doc, & Facets.
Thanks for the music & inspiration. Best of luck in your "retirement" and with your horses. Although everything is very important, one of my instructors in vet school always said, " no feet, no legs, no horse" - keep a close watch on their feet & legs. If you ever have a question or need a referral, please don't hesitate to shoot me an E-mail, or give a call. All the best.
