Sure. I'm a huge fan of listening. A LOT. Don't even worry about figuring out what they're doing yet. Just listen to a ton of what you really enjoy. Find some solos you love and learn to sing them. Stuff like that. It might not seem like you're doing much, but you are

Hi Randy! Yep. It took me a while to figure out that what was frustrating me was the distance between my musical thinking and my (non-existent) chops on any other instrument. Trying to be a bit gentler with myself this time around

As for practice materials, John Clark’s book is a great way to start getting around the instrument fluently.
Feel free to message me with any questions. I’m happy to talk about jazz horn all day!

I know I’m forgetting some people, but that’s a good start! I'm sure more folks will pop into my head over the next day or so and I'm sure other people will have suggestions of players I might not have heard of, yet.
