Oh my God is he kidding with that Super bone solo ?!!!! Phenomenal, "real trombone" or not !!! "The World of Maynard Ferguson" T.V. Special. Well Maynard lived in our world but most of the time sounded like he came from another one ! Fabulous !
I had an incredible old recording, from the '50s, of Maynard playing three overdubbed trumpet solos on the tune "Airegin" - but THIS is far, far beyond incredible, with Superbone, Baritone Horn, Flugelhorn & Trumpet ALL overdubbed on The Fox Hunt!!!!!
Probably one of my favorites. I love the way Maynard always quotes "Lady Be Good" in his improvised solo in this tune. I'm sure the dubbed over solos with himself was "special effects" for 1970. Great post and performance!
Any chance you have the Billy Crystal special with Maynard?

no offense to him, he is a great trumpet player, but if you want the respect of any trombone player...learn how to play a real trombone

It takes some f*8ing skill to rock a flugel like that.
Seriously.
RIP, Maynard.
Long live your music and your legacy.

Maynard was not only a great trumpet player, but apparently he was also an expert teleporter. How did he fit in those small circles haha!

I gotta share this video with my band director.
He would love it. He got me hooked on Maynard Ferguson.

My band director got us hooked on Maynard in 1973. I still can't stop listening.

haha. It took me a second to realize that it is him in every bubble. That is so creative and it shows just how amazing and talented Maynard was.
I just love his energy so much. He was a true gem.

The effects are a little cheesy but it was the '70.

How awesome! Thanks so much for the post. I'd only heard him do the Fox Hunt live with Bob Summers. This was a real treat. Cheers!
