Seabreeze, what a pleasure it was to hear that! That was an A+!

Lot's of emotion! That is what I was trying get write and there it was performed so well! You found it!

You mentioned my old dear friend Mitchell Lurie. Well read this -

Mitchell Lurie had a very French sound and feel for the horn. A very light tongue as well. A super man to know. We had a lot of dinners together when I worked at Rico and made his reeds. He did something unusual though and kept the tip of the reed just a shade higher than the tip on the mouthpiece. My guess is you could hardly hear him articulate.

One story that few are aware of - During WW2 when most of the great musicians were in the military bands Mitchell Lurie flew bombers! Yes he was a bomber in World War 2! Yet he is the nicest man you'd ever want to meet. Had the biggest heart too. Had to share this. Sure he could have been in the bands like Iggie Gennusa and Tony Gilliotti. Nope he flew bombers! He wasn't tall. 5'6" 140 pounds I guess. Glad he made it home.

He sadly had heart troubles. His first heart attack was only at 48 years old. That didn't stop him though. He lived until maybe 86 or so. Died of a stroke.
