Musician extraordinaire…one of the most recorded artists in the history of recording…a member of so many iconic bands it would take pages to list them all…
…And an educator with a brand new masterwork that will resonate across the ages.
I’m not kidding.
For musicians, this is MUST be listening.
For people who love the music even if they don’t know a flatted fifth from a fifth of vodka, this interview will take you deeper into the REALITY of jazz as it’s performed at a high level than anything else I can think of.
