[Dixielandjazz] Clarinet High Notes Sound & Trombone Sex

[Mike Durham]

Not sure of its effect on the ladies, but Abe Lincoln played fantastic 
high-register trombone, too! Great examples of his work on the new Mosaic 
8-CD set of "Condon Mob" recordings - recommended to anyone with $100 or so 
to spare....
