This is great. I studied jazz with Paul about 1995, but I'm a trombone player! My dad and Karmen worked together at the time. This was before they moved to Silver Spring. A different basement but probably the same poodle. :)
A true saint for what he does for the music, mentorship and education…PC is effortlessly hip, has one of the smoothest golf swings in Jazz, and is a friend to all. Thank you for giving him his due Matt!
Loved to read the interview, beautiful introduction to your former teacher as well. Reminded me very much of my beginnings on the saxophone in Germany as well - lots of basement lessons too :)
This is great, Matt. Paul’s story is long overdue for public consumption. I wish I knew about him way back when, I’d sound better!Thanks for sending my way. Looking forward to vol. 2

Wow this is so gratifying to read, Keeley! Thanks for finding me! Did you get here from Paul’s Facebook post?

All true, Benny! You’re welcome!

I think we all had them but this basement holds a very dear place in my heart.

I want to know who everyone’s Paul Carr was.
