Doug, great playing! Also, don't miss the Reinhardt-inspired section around 32:00!

Doug, I recognize about half the players. Some I'm not sure of. We all look a little different 21 years later. Could you list them?

You sound great as usual.

Wow! This Reinhardt stuff really works on a trombone, who knew?

That 4th chair bone player needs to be a trumpet player. (Last name of Hinote)

'94 found me right in the middle of my workaholic, non-playing years ...

Yeah! Wonderful.

I first heard your stuff with the Airmen when I was in high school and started to play. Always enjoyed your playing a great deal!

I like the sound they got with that setup (and mic), too - nice when there's a trombone solo and you can actually hear what it sounds like instead of getting completely lost.

mighty fine. mighty fine. My children all came in too see what I was watching. I said, " that's my friend, Doug." My little boy said, " Sounds pretty good!"
