Ich vermisse ihn noch Heute. Er war ein wunderbarer Musiker und mit seinem Herz und seiner Leidenschaft hat er mich verzaubert, bis zum heutigen Tage. Danke für die schönen Klänge
Derek is still a legend! One of the greatest trumpet players of all time and one of my heroes! So he still lives on with his amazing playing and he is always on my mind, inspiring my own playing which will never get his level! One of the best ever! ❤❤
Herb Alpert put this album to the A&R Department of the record company A&M.. the guy said...No way , mate.. we're not doing 'Old man's' shit any more!...Then Herb said... Do you know who you are working for? ..''Yeah!" he answered ...A&M Records... to which Herb then said ...''I am the A in A&M .... '' You're fired!" ... I love that! ...it went on to sell over Three Million Copies! "
This would be cracking tight sound but for the excessive reverberation. Yet I bet there's no other band which can do this great tune so brilliantly - LIVE!!
