    I get the biggest kick out of these guys! This is like a breath of fresh air. Am I alone, or is this effort far and away beyond the rock and roll of today? Just very good musicians playing their hearts out, without effects or auto tune, or any other gimmicks. Just laying their effort on the line for all to see. I wish that I could have see Pokey with this combo live.
    I especially appreciate the clarinet and trumpet players, because I played trumpet and picked up on my brother's clarinet pretty quick. I have a feeling that Chloe won first chair as a freshmen and was probably never challenged again, until she got to college.
