description:
Last year I met this guy who was in love with Jazz music and with playing the trumpet. He's an amazing musician, but his music taste was pretty narrow. I decided to introduce him to music outside of Jazz that still feature trumpets, and this is what came out of it. I hope he liked it, but he may have just said so to appease me.
