    @cov01crew Wayne Started playing lead for Maynard in 1986 and played for him when Maynard went to the High Voltage stuff, and played with him when he switched to the big bop band and played on a lot of recordings of Maynard’s in the 90’s and 00’s and played on his final album that was released after Maynard passed away, he is the best lead player ever in my opinion, and a good soloist, this is the perfect way to remember Maynard, play his old charts and have these guys just wail, and have fun.

    I flew from AZ to attend the 2006 tribute concert! When people ask me how it was, I tell them it was the best Maynard concert I ever saw, and he wasn’t there. Everyone played like they would never play again. Get the DVD. Well worth it.
