That’s very cool that you had that great opportunity! Well, personally I copied him and many others in the way they played and that’s why I play the way I do. The Viscounts were a great band that were simply a product of their time. They had a small group of players that were really good and happened to be into instrumental music like the Ventures and others but they did stand out in many ways especially because of the sax. As for writing the music note for note, the notes themselves don’t tell the whole story, More of the way it was played, the attitude.
