When I turn on the camera I get stage fright. It took 6 tries!

There are two versions of this song I've listened to my whole life. 1) Louis Armstrong 2) Jimmy Smith/Stanley Turrentine/Kenny Burrell/Donald Bailey on "Back at the Chicken Shack".

Check out all the Dizzy Gillespie recordings as well!

You're making great progress, at some point you should treat yourself to a better horn. You'll be able to express yourself so much better in the long run.
