Introduction to the A Passage for Trumpet

Joey Crown, musician with an odd, intense face, whose life is a quest for impossible things like flowers in concrete, or like trying to pluck a note of music out of the air and put it under a glass to treasure. Joey Crown, musician with an odd, intense face, who in a moment will try to leave the Earth and discover the middle ground; the place we call the Twilight Zone.

This episode stars a young Jack Klugman, his first appearance on the Twilight Zone. He would go on to do three more episodes, for a total of four. Some have compared this Rod Serling written script to “It’s a Wonderful Life”.
