Frankie Trumbauer / Benny Goodman / Good Friday

Received the second book today in the mail regarding improv. Not sure if I'll use this one or the other. 

Listened to some Frankie Trumbauer today. So cool how these original guys just improvised so melodically. Also listened to Benny Goodman.  Got my love for the big band stuff from my dad who played this music when I was a kid.

Below is a picture taken on my parents' wedding day in 1950.

You look a lot like your dad in that pic. :-)
