    jazz and poetry has been going on for sometime now and the more I hear it the more I like it from all generations. I am one who likes scatting that has more simuliarity of the melody in this type of setting. Yes Helan Sung used one of Wynton Marsalis poems and put a funk jazz twist to it which was interesting. I am happy Wynton is a continued influence on us all.Enjoyed what I got to hear of it.

    Jeez, you and your band’s brilliant sound is beginning to become as recognizable as Coltrane’s or Miles’! He and She is a fantastic album. You all are setting the standard for us young players! Absolutely sick.

    With a little practice and a few lessons you could probably be a good trumpet player!
