DG Bissonette was there, along with literally hundreds of other accomplished professional musicians over the years. The band was the One O'Clock Lab Band, part of a 10 band lab band program. 20 piece band based upon the Stan Kenton Band (the Kenton Library with all of his original charts is housed there). Maynard had no association with the school, although, God knows, he recruited dozens of young musicians from the program, as did Woody Herman and other big bands. Greg's brother, Matt, a bassist, also went to North Texas and toured with Maynard and David Lee Roth. Both are very active studio musicians today. Any other questions? I worked for the Jazz Studies Program there for 5 years. efnef View Public Profile Send a private message to efnef Find all posts by efnef
