The Dream band had great trombone players, like Frank Rosolino and Carl Fontana and all the top west coast cats!

Thanks for the great tribute. Didn't realize TG was still going. I got to talk to him when he was playing at Rick's Casablanca Bar on Lake Shore Dr. in Chicago, 1978. On a break, he came out and mingled with the crowd. My GF and I were at a small table near the front. I shook his hand and thanked him for the great performance. When he went back, the band was going to town and the lights finally fell on the piano player sitting in the rear, playing quietly. It was Steve Allen. He didn't come out – it was Terry's show – but man, what an evening. Btw, Lemon Drop was a riot.
