Sunday Mondays

On this one you’ll hear what I sounded like on Trombone in the early 90’s. Got a call from Lenny Kravitz asking me to meet him in the city and we rode out to his NJ studio in his Volkswagen Van to record this track for Vanessa Paradis. Scroll down to the Youtube video then you’ll hear me near the 3 minute mark playing the melody with Lenny’s vocal backgrounds, then I solo at the end a little bit. Vintage.
