7: Tatum Greenblatt, jazz trumpet player

  Jazz trumpeter Tatum Greenblatt knew what he wanted to do from the first moment he heard the sound of Freddie Hubbard playing on the “Ugetsu” album by Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers, when he was just a boy. Here he talks about growing up in a jazz house, his early musical mentors, and his general philosophy about professionalism in music.  I’ve said it before and I’ll probably say it a few more times: Tatum is one sharp dressed cat.
