All of you doubters should shut your faces. This is the premier big band in the world right now. I doubt anyone good enough to do better wouldn’t waist there time dissing on any of the trombone players.
to me, the bass trombone sounds like he's struggling for some of the notes (my range on trombone extends to an octave below the pedal tones). It could just be the fact that the camera used just isn't capable of picking up opening to the notes
@landhunterr actually, there are. Thanks to the nature of brass instruments, you can play nearly any notes with the right skills. I have a a friend who can play higher than a trumpet on a bass trombone, for example.
Great band and good bass trombone player .The trombone players sounded pretty good but the last trombone player to take a solo sounds like bad college player trying to prove to everyone that hes good enough to go pro . What a joke1
im a freshman in high school and my jazz band is playin this song but we still needa work on the trombone solos but i'll post a video and im a drummer.
So many trombone solos! Great job! I am a trombone player as well. I wish our band director would put this many trombone solos in a song, especially this one. Great job!(: 5/5
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The trombone players are pretty boring.The last trombone player to solo sounded like he could barely even get a tone through his horn.Andy Martin is the best bone player and is on a level that these average bone players will never achieve!
Yeah this song really IS hard! It might not sound like it but really it is. It's the hardest song my band has played. I'm lead tenor and it's crazy But gosh it's so fun! If you read what Goodwin's note in the score says, it's pretty funny. He says stuff like, "Don't even attempt to play this song. It's ridiculous. It's not even a real piece of music; it's meant as a total joke." Yeah he really says along the lines of that. I just can't remember the actual wording. It's really fun to play.
The jazz band i'm in is playing it next year and i play tenor so now i'm worried. This year we played The Jazz Police by them though, and that was pretty difficult..
if you thinks that hard. i had to memorize it for marching band this year. woot our final competition is tomrrow. the only word of advice i have that to have fun with it and dont be scared. when you get scared you are more likely to mess up but, if you just have fun you will be great. good luck mand and have fun.
The band is really good but thought that the trombone solos were not that great.the last trombone player to solo needs to work on getting a better tone quality .
uhh yeah first of all calm down. Second, i never said i didn't know what improv is. And fine, i'll give you one point, sure they make it more interesting improv'ing, but the solo on the CD is still better.
Go back to school, learn more theory, develop an extensive network as a professional musician, gig a LOT,(longer than you've been alive)try to learn from as many people as you can, and THEN, only then give advice(with tact, I might add) If you were to go to a paid gig, and behave this way, or even a rehearsal, no matter how good you are, you'd be fired. I hope that you got something positive out of this.
I just love this song. We are currently practicing this in our high school jazz band and it is a quite a challenge. I'm just happy i don't have lead trumpet part.
Jazz is not for ppl like you. Now please go do something else... You are so stupid man. PLEASE do something with your life, stop post some bad comments and get a life! go out side, go play with some's ppl like you! hmm.. sorry no body are mad like you, so you can go play with litle car man ;)
YOU, are mocking Gordon Goodwin's tenor sax line....wow...I'd hate to use a word that you used when referring to improvisation and it's definition....lol
being i've had the chance to play the bass trombone part for this song i do have to say that bass bone rips it .... i wish i could have seen this so i could hear that bass bone fill up the room with fat sound....yeah!!!! =)
who are these trombonists who are subbing? i think jason thor, francisco torres, and craig ware, but who else?

It's always better on the CD because if they don't like it, they can just go back and re-record the thing with a different solo.

REAL jazz was created by african slaves moving to america. when that started to grow dixieland is a take on that, with the more country influence.
the only thing I don't like about dixie land is that it is to hard to hear the melody, everyone is doing something different.
