  • In which Cheryl Bentine  becomes a jazz trumpet. unbelievable. Cheryl, you are the best!

  • @MrSirDel No disrespect to Miss Laurel intended but it can be Man Tran without her because, A) She wasnt one of the founding members. B) She was only with the group briefly (5 of it's 42 year run) and C) They scored their most success after she left.
