Did anyone see the Bravo show on Pete Fountain last night. Great
show and his playing was top notch. He's playing the gold "Pete Fountain"
Leblanc model with some kind of crystal mouthpiece. IMHO, he sounds much
more like Benny Goodman than some of the other players who have tried to
copy Benny's sound and style. I think he said that he just released his
79th disc and he's aiming for 100 records (discs) before he's done.
