    thanks Josh for this and for all the other great interviews on the site

  3. 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.
