Customer Reviews
It’s got that magic
You know when you find people personally annoying, but still come back for more of what they do? Yeah, this is like that.
Slidecarver
I am a amateur trombone player, I am 64, so my best playing days are still ahead. I enjoy your podcast, the stories, some of the advice, which I would like to hear more of, I would like to hear from some of the minority trombonist such as Wycliffe Gordon who is one of my favorites, along with Bill Waltrous, I enjoyed listening to Christian Lindberghs interview. Thank you very for your hard work gentlemen.
All Smiles
If I had 10 thumbs, I’d put them all up for you! Love the podcast. It’s my go-to podcast at the dentist’s office because the dentist doesn’t need to ask me to smile.
