This was in an issue of "The Instrumentalist" in 1974, with Herseth on the cover for a feature interview. The interviewer pressed Bud if he meant "trumpet player", but Herseth replied "brass player". Herseth also had glowing things to say about Harry James, Lew Soloff, and Jon Faddis in the same article. Perhaps the article has been reprinted somewhere on the Net, or a back issue is in some conservatory library, but it is a great interview!
