All the trumpet players I knew in school worshipped MF above all others.

I feel like crap for saying this right now... but I always thought he was overrated. :(
That's not to say that he wasn't very good.

Heh. Count me as a bit in that group too. I'd rather listen to Dizzy Gillespie. Maynard had crazy talent though. Not always the best taste, but crazy talent.

St. Maynard the trumpeter.
