San Marcos — For Paul White, the album that did it was John Coltrane’s “Giant Steps.”White was an undergraduate student at Appalachian State University when a roommate put the record on. It was the first song that really attracted White to the music he now makes a living performing.From then on, White got serious about one thing: playing jazz.The former Texas State faculty member and now saxophonist for the US Army Jazz Ambassadors will return to the Lone Star State when the Ambassadors perform at Aquarena Center in San Marcos at 7 p.m. Thursday. It’s been almost a year since he’s been back to Texas.
