Josh,
Wonderful interview with Mr. Golson. Not just a fine musician and composer but an impressive storyteller as well.
Thanks so much!

thanks Josh for this and for all the other great interviews on the site
I loved listening to this interview. I would also love to see Benny Golson live and hear more great stories about the music and the times when Jazz was really happening.
There is so much history here. I am so glad there are still musicians around to
share these wonderful stories about the music that is our heritage.
Great interview ,loved it.
