The John Lovell Interview is featured on The Paul Leslie Hour.
Are you here? I asked, but I already knew that you were! Whether you know it or not, you’re listening to The Paul Leslie Hour!
We’ve got an exciting interview from the archives with trumpeter John Lovell. Composer and trumpet player John Lovell’s musical career has had some very interesting chapters. Of course he’s got some jazz history and since April is Jazz Appreciation Month (JAM), we thought let’s get this John Lovell interview out there.
Now, John Lovell started playing trumpet at five years old, but professionally it all started with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra. Through the years he got to play with a lot of great acts: The O’Jays, Tony Bennett, Ben E. King, and Bob Hope.
When Paul caught up to talk with Johnny Martini Lovell, he was in Atlanta on one of the off days of the Jimmy Buffett tour. A lot of you know John Lovell has been performing with Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band for more than 30 years…since 1992.
Hey, did you all hear that Jimmy Buffett is going to release a new album this September 2023? So far we hear the title of the record is going to be “Equal Strain on All Parts.” It’s going to have some really great talent on the album: Lennie Gallant and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band for starters. We’ll keep you apprised.
Just remember, The Paul Leslie Hour is made possible by people just like you, the listeners. Just go right here, and we thank you for listening and for supporting.
Are you ready to hear what John Lovell had to say to Paul Edward Leslie? I know I am. Let’s listen together.
