Finally today — a musical cocktail. Take one part funk trombone. Trombone player Fred Wesley — formerly with James Brown’s band — will do just fine. Then you add — and bear with me here because it’s kind of like the first time someone poured vermouth in gin – then you add some klezmer clarinet.
The clarinet of virtuoso David Krakauer for example. Put them together, and what do you get?
