[Trombone-l] Bob Rosengarden RIP

[John Jensen]

I played some jobs for him at a resort years ago....he was an impeccable 
jazz drummer and a really relaxed bandleader. These were society jobs and he 
knew exactly what to call....and regardless of the corner the band was in 
when playing quiet wallpaper music....the band swung like all get out.
