"Hi Marianne, I'm the sax player on this cut and I've been enjoying this wonderful video collage that you put together for months.

I consider it quite an honor that you chose Illinois Jacquet to represent me not that I would compare my playing to his in any way, but Jacquet was a real soul-cat.


Thank you."
