My guest for this episode is Jim Manley.  
Jim Manley is a trendsetter. Jim has been teaching virtual lessons and cranking out home studio projects long before it was en vogue. Since 1992 Jim has released a staggering 22 projects that keep the trumpet exactly where it should be, upfront and center, and often in the stratosphere. But it’s his insightful approach to efficiency that really separates him from the rest of the pack.  
Check out what Jim has to say about his discography, the connection between music and memories, why the '70s were the heyday for trumpets, the uniqueness of Bill Chase and Don Ellis, Maynard Furguson and pop music, home recording and teaching online, learning to play efficiently, why you will never completely figure the trumpet out, keeping it simple, how the wrong mindset keeps you from playing in the upper register, being called the worst trumpet student ever, keeping music fun, his one piece of advice for trumpet players, and so much more. 
So pour yourself a big glass, pull up a chair, and let the hang begin!
