    Very Good!!!

    Rio de Janeiro/Brasil

  • We 4 San Diegans will be traveling to Amsterdam this August 2011 are you playing any gigs? What should we do while we are in the neighborhood?

  • Miss Lielian is super-enthusiastic on this number! I guess she likes the "Kid." Then again, who doesn't...?

  • Great unusuel bass saxophone

  • Excellent playing! I enjoyed all of you! Nice relaxed drumming, excellent solos and happy ukulele, all the way along! You should come to Silves, Algarve, and play at the "Café Inglês", near the castle, onde day!! They normally have bands of all sorts there, you would sound great, in June, July or September, when it's less ectic around here (avoid the confusion of August!)! Greetings!

  • @qtadosol That would be great!

  • Hey Bert, GREAT playing. I've been playing the saxophone for more years than I like to think about, mostly the tenor and I FINALLY conquered the # 4 reed and learned how to play softly when required but it would HONK when called upon. I found a 2 1/2 about right for the bass. Unfortunately I never played like Tex Beneke....nor you. Wonderful job with that big bass. My compliments

  • dern cajuns

  • I like the old Bob Crosby - Ray Bauduc versions but this is really a good version as well. This is really great!

  • I love the Bob Crosby records as well. They had a great band. A favourite of mine is their rendition of Washington & Lee Swing.

    Thanks for listening!

  • @ABrandsma Hey Bert you lucky guy !!! Nice band. Greetings from Spain

  • Hello!

    Thanks for your nice message.

    When we played in Portugal, we met some nice musicians from Spain.

    Kind regards,

    Bert Brandsma

  • @ABrandsma Hi Bert. I know you from sometime ago, I'm a saxes fan, (although I don't play) and searchin' on Youtube for a bass sax, met you playin' "Sweet Georgia Brown". If you ever play in the Costa Brava, please feel free to let me know. Keep doin' your great job !! PEPE

  • Yes, that would be great to play the Costa Brava. Let's hope that will come true.

    Kind regards,

    Bert

  • Excellent drumming!

  • is that a tenor banjo or a plectrum banjo? can anyone tell me?

  • This is a tenor banjo. A plectrum banjo has a longer neck. Our banjo player has his banjo not tuned like most players do.

    He has tuned it more like a guitar, in fourths instead in fifths what is more customary.

  • Thank you!

    Is that the "Chicago tuning"? I'm a guitar player... but since I heard you I want to start a dixieland band! so I'm researching to buy a banjo :)

  • Great sound and I think Selena is great and inventive, ignore the comments.

    Bert Brandsma is fantastic with the bass sax, you don`t hear them very often in England.

    My only criticism is that I can`t understand a word of it ha ha.

  • What really can be said here? PURE JOY!

    ALL I can say IS GET LOST IN THEIR GENIUS!

    Can anyone capture true dixie LIKE THESE GUYS

    GOD'S PEACE

    SHAWN

  • Weet iemand hoe het liedje heette dat die oude vent speelde op de trompet bij het jubileum van Paul de Leeuw?

  • i hope i can listen to you tomorrow here at Mealhada (Portugal). i'll be there playing also!

  • Bert Brandsma speelt hier een schitterende en swingende solo op bassax. De twee dames staan ook hun "mannetje" Een fijn orkest.

    Paul Zelders.

  • music is truely the international language - great job Guys

  • Merci pour cette musique qui n'a pas pris une ride !

    Alain Meaume - Louisiana Jazz Band. Bourges (France)

  • Merci bien pour Écouter!

    Bert Brandsma

  • awesome! i like how the girl on drum(s) gets so into it.

  • Excellent Performance!!

  • alright! great stuff guys

  • Grandi. Bravi.

  • Grazie! (Almost the only word I know in Italian, sorry about that!)

  • That girl on the slide trombone is great in the seventh position!

  • I really enjoyed your performance. Thank you.

    Richard

  • This band has it. Really nice playing.

    Never heard such good basssax notes.

  • Great swinging groove!

  • Tis wel leuk, maar het duurt iets te lang

  • Bedankt voor de tip. Je hebt wel gelijk. Voor dit optreden live was het wel handig, maar voor een filmpje kunnen we hem beter wat inkorten.

    Groetjes,

    Bert Brandsma
