Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Behind every good horn player is a great horn repairman, and I don’t know about the first part but I sure have the second. Saxology in Berkeley is a candy store for saxophonists, with a crazy selection of the very nicest vintage pieces - just checked out a really really really nice old Brilhart! Eric Drake is a super nice, super skilled and knowledgeable repairman, engraver, and mouthpiece refacer. Also the cat can play! Sax people, go by sometime Tues-Sat and check it out!
