Re: Rashawn Interview
Just because the horn parts were laid down in 6 hours doesn't mean that the album will lack quality OR that they are mostly unreleased material that we know of. You have to consider the idea of that Steve and the band knew where they wanted the horn parts for each track, and Rashawn is a very talented trumpet play who can give you what you need in 6 hours. He could very well be exaggerating for all we know. If you think about it, Rashawn plays mostly fills. If you know where the fills are going to be/where you want them....6 hours is not unbelievable time frame for quality work.

I've known rivers ancient as the world and older than the flow of human blood in human veins. My soul has grown deep like the rivers. I bathed in the Euphrates when dawns were young. I built my hut near the Congo and it lulled me to sleep. I looked upon the Nile and raised the pyramids above it. I heard the singing of the Mississippi when Abe Lincoln went down to New Orleans, and I've seen its muddy bosom turn all golden in the sunset. I've known rivers...
