I've had the pleasure of knowing and working with Bob Mintzer for over 25 years. Simply stated, he is one of my heroes. I will never forget hearing the first incarnations of Bob's big band at Seventh Avenue South in the 1980s. They were some of the most electrifying and inspiring nights of music I have ever experienced. Bob continues to inspire all who hear him and are fortunate enough to play his music. I am honored and grateful to have been a member of his big band for the past two decades. It was a pleasure to sit down with Bob to discuss his incredible career and his approach to music and life. Enjoy!
