Very cool moment in time! Paul Shaffer, keyboards; Will Lee, bass; Sid McGinnis, guitar; and Anton Fig, drums from the NBC Letterman band, and Doc Severinsen and Snooky Young, trumpets; Bruce Paulsen and Ernie Tack(?), trombones; and Pete Christlieb, Tommy Newsom, and Don Ashworth, saxophones from the Johnny Carson Tonight Show Orchestra.

@mrcroondog Sorry, Bruce - that's "Paulson."

@mrcroondog

Thanks for the info (and your own correction) on the NBC Orchestra members and of course Letterman would have corrected you on Antons name ;-)

[mrcroondog]

@DumpsDailyDump Oh, yeah. Anton "Zip."  LOL

I liked the album version of this song. But them playing it live is much better.
