And the nurse says, "Which one of you is here for treatment, and what seems to be the problem?"

Ah nurse I believe the problem is marked at the arrow.

This one has requested a reservation in your ER

The question is, will his son William Tell?

You still forgot the water nymph.

I didn't!

I am a great Bible expert and even know the name of Noah's wife. It was Joan. Joan of Arc.

And I am sure you are celebrating this insight at the Arc of Triumph. And that's OK as there are many treatments we have for people exposed to Paris-sights.

I am actually very interested in that leather couch!

Heck, at may age, if I had to actually think through a passage or phrase, I wouldn't ever get a line completed.

Jim,
...I don't think as fast as I used to, and this is more noticeable with each passing year. It happens with age...

And that is why God created muscle memory.

You know GoergeB, a lot of the goal to success is to also surmount the mental component. I remember preparing for one of my classical lessons a passage that I continually flubbed up once I placed it back into context after rehearsing the actual phrase to perfection. My teacher said, you have predetermined to screw that passage up in your mind.

So my teacher gave me a challenge. He told me to pick a bar or two past the difficult passage and tell myself that I was really going to screw up that passage. So I played into the piece concentrating on screwing up a passage further into the song. And don't cha know, I made it through that passage perfectly. Thereafter, the piece was no longer a problem.

So, Doc, you were a new-born innocent babe in 1955...

Newborn... yes... innocent? I'll let members here be the judge of that...

AFTER ALL I have the distinction of being the only Trumpetboard member to have been banned from the site!

Also interesting the article came out the year of my birth. Great things truly happening in 1955!

Interesting that the Committee was being promoted to make the high range more possible. It does, at least for me as well and the horn tends to brighten and lighten up from it's darker lower register characteristics at the to of the staff. That F is the doorway to a brighter horn, for sure.

@FranklinD said in Wanna hear an amazing solo by Chet?:

Yes, on the Japan tour Chet played with a Dutch bass player and drummer cause he lived in Amsterdam then. They are great and very experienced players BTW. They had him on a complete methadon program that is quite standard in Holland but was less easy in Japan but they made it.

So sad he could not stay on that program. And today the success rate of Suboxone and counseling is over 80%! This is why I expanded my DEA license to include the Subpxone waver. So now I have the XO- notification in front of me DEA number.

Lovely horn George, enjoy.

Dr Go, known as the French rim... all had a conventional roll.

Ummmm.... Love French pastry! Even conventional rolls! Ummmmm.....

@Kehaulani

What an amazing talent he was. But you know, whenever I listen to his music or watch his videos, I always come away feeling a heavy sadness in my heart.

Playing on through these trumpet licks is the easy part. Coming off from the addiction is nearly impossible. Chet, like so many other in the era, just did not have time or the support needed to survive the latter challenge.
