Doc is the greatest trumpet virtuoso, I love Maynard but he was too obsessed with high notes. Speaking of high note players, Lin Biviano is under-rated.
oh and by the wayyy Al Hirt was right under Mendez in my book listen to him play this or Carnival of Venice live at Carnegie Hall. under Mendez the best technician of all as is Allen Vizzutti now. Al died in 99 RIP
Maynard Ferguson was very good at what he did best... but was not as versatile as Doc.... Its hard to say who is best because Doc spanned so many types and styles of music where Maynard Ferguson was primarily jazz

A parte il fatto che se io suonassi come lui sarei uno dei più grandi trombettisti del mondo, devo anche dire che il volo del calabrone non è un pezzo poi così difficile. Io resto del parere che la miglior tromba (non solo classica, badate bene) di ogni tempo sia Maurice André, ma questa è solo una modesta opinione. Comunque, Doc è sempre stato un grandissimo ed è sicuramente da annoverare tra i Masters.
In the best of all possible worlds, ALL trumpet players would sound this good! Doc's playing never ceases to amaze. He's equally comfortable in any genre, always lyrical and always tasteful.

My first date with my future wife was a Doc concert in 1971. Still have the poster in my office! Thanks Doc.
