Had no idea 'how' he'd respond to that jewel.. but I hoped that the er Muse would handle all of that. Quite satisfying to hear that both of you enjoyed that, pretty-far-from a combo sound. It seems bitchin for any horn player, of whatever aims.
For that matter, had I magically heard That CD, via the grace of Cthulhu + Twilight Zone, at age 15ish? - I *really* do not know if I would have hung it up? or re-doubled [??] 'Awesome' - another murdered word. We still Had it! then.
I was never much interested in the pop songs of *yout, but noticed that many of my cohorts would try to emulate those sounds. I didn't - OK maybe Bunny Berrigan.. and can't get into the heads of those who thought they were .. [enough?] But was lucky enough to have a few cohorts; one to play duets with. That suggested I was maybe not all That odd. (Not that I would have been any less stubborn, if solo ;-)
Thanks for the fine words,
A.
