I like the way it feels [the music], that’s the main thing. So if it feels good to me man I’m [going] to tell you, I got to tell you, because it’s good, it’s encouraging. I like to encourage young guys. It feels good, you have a good sound [and] that’s not an easy instrument that you play, to be accepted. The trombone is a very difficult instrument man. But that’s what I loved about your playing; it felt so good.
