I must agree that the overall impression I got was sadness from that video.
  I have to admit that parts of it may be not as factual as presented.
   
  (After all, how can I seriously trust a "series" on the history of Jazz in which
  no mention is made of J.J. Johnson?)
   
  Alittle personal note there, please forgive me any Ken Burns "fans."
   
  When I went to the Youtube link I saw another video that's abvailable
  that is not "sad" by any means. It's the "Carlings" . In about 1985 Gunhilde
  Carling was 9 and playing FANTASTIC tailgate trombone. It is well worth
  checking out.  I watched the one with "Fidgety Feet". She also  plays a great
  slide trumpet in some selections.
