Hey Bob & Dave:

Yes, Terence Blanchard is one hell of a trumpet player. He is mostly  
in the hard bop style, but as you hear in Princess & The Frog, he can  
get down with the OKOMers when necessary. He is a true New Orleans  
player in the sense that he was born there in the early 1960s, still  
lives there, and plays various New Orleans styles, though not much  
Dixieland. I think he has won at least 3 Grammys.

Cheers,
Steve Barbone
