    He used to hit high schools when I was a kid. I went to all the Magio camps and learned to play high correctly. Been doing it ever since. Thanks Maynard. I am 65, retired but still practicing every day.

      I've also.mastered playing high correctly. Takes lost of practice and rolling papers but I got there.

      @@jacuhb8445not really. You can find recordings of the seminars he used to give students on RUclips, but he never laid out anything.
      The “secret” is that on top of whatever natural affinity he had he went to school for it and put in the years and decades of work it takes to be the best in the world

    Of course it doesn't really matter, he could make a garden hose sound good

    I went to a Maynard concert in 1963 on Long Island - Lanny Morgan, Willie Maiden, Mike Abene, Frank Hittner, etc...I was like 16 then - incredible experience....then, to make it even better I had Chet Ferretti as a music/band teacher for 2 years at Freeport High School 1964-65 - wow! great guy.....

    I had a couple 33 1/3 albums he did of dance standards from early 60s. I like this sound of his when younger. It was fluid and effortless. Stylistically no one comes close. The end of this one shows his awesome style and "throxos"-guts.

    Does anybody know the origin of the random non-chord-tone, staccato note at 1:46? It sounds like trumpet to me, but making a mistake like that seems unlikely at that point in the piece.

    voice-over guy doesn't understand music. The piece doesn't end as soon as they stop playing. It has to simmer for a few seconds in the listener's ear before you start talking.
