Wanna talk trumpet? Roy Campbell spills the beans in this one. The inside stories on Woody Shaw I expected, but Lee Morgan?! Miles Davis?! Ornette Coleman?! Roy Campbell walked the walk and on this show he talks the talk.
I am so glad I got him in the chair and that I can share this with you. Not 2 months after this recording, we got the terrible news that he had died of heart disease at age 61. Roy, you left us way too soon.
