Clyde played the well known solo in Glenn Miller's In the Mood. Clyde passed away in 1963:

She might also enjoy Bob Barnard, a distinguished Aussie trumpet player. 

I don't think anyone can exactly duplicate Ruby's style or should even try. Just like all the great trumpet players mentioned previously, each has his own unique style.

Bob Barnard has a captivating way of playing.

You can find examples of Bob's playing on Amazon.com or Rhapsody.com.
Sincerely,

An accordion-player friend of mine is a total and absolute fan of Ruby 
Braff and has acquired nearly every Cd of his recordings and has spent 
hours listening to his phrasing and style.  She phones me up and says 
that she has discovered another player who, to her at least, has a 
quality to his playing that sounds amazingly like Braff.  I listened to 
the recording over the phone and, myself being a Braff fan, think I'd 
have to largely agree with her. 

Here's the amazing thing about her discovery - - -the trumpet player 
was Clyde Hurley, performing a solo on a recording with Matty Matlock. 
The tune is "What's the Use".  Man is it played "hot" !! 

 Here's the Question:  What can anyone tell us about Clyde Hurley, and 
can we find more of of his solos on other available recordings?
