Spalding...I'll tell you what it did for me. It made me realize that the high-end arrangers are just plain a lot of fun.

More than that, they make for a great platform to bounce your musical ideas off of. I can play like a trumpet player would on the piano until the cows come home, but there's nothing like having a good trumpet patch under your fingertips.

Up to now, I've been considering buying a Ketron, but concerned about "will it pay itself off?" in today's music scene. After listening to those demo's, I'm now thinking "who cares...I want to have fun like Peter is!"
