I've definitely got to agree with Martin, Crockford is a great player. I've
been lucky enough to play in a band with him on several occasions and
although he can play really loud he has a superb quality of sound at every
dynamic.

I know Crockford can play some high notes as well but funnily enough I don't
rate a player on just how high he can get. Mind you I can sympathize about
the super G. It's missing from my tenor horn as well. Or maybe it's me.
