[PaulBaughman2142]

Looks like they are all girls. Boys don't play in Japan?

[pepepastrana]

wonderful!

[trisk77]

Dorothy and Sammy would be blown away (get it blown...;) well these girls certainly know how to blow!

Just shows all the chauvenists out there you don't need a set of balls to swing and fill it!

[saschapanknin]

Yeah! Great!

[clevoguer]

Classy!

Arigato gosaimasu!

[JuliaBaDulia123]

[Khomradeigor]

[DOAer]

0:54. Gives me chills because of the wonderful tone and the harmony!

[lac436]

As one who was around during the Big Band days,thank you young ladies I love you all!

[Neverintime]

How I agree with you.

But the bassplayer is mine. :))

[braintreecat]

I would love the girls play something more contemporary by Maria Schneider, Thad Jones, Bob Brookmeyer or later Bill Holman or something from the Vanguard Orchestra. Except for the doublings I think they could pull it off.

[daikke2000]

Me too !

and pieces of soul/funky jazz style, played by The Jazz Messengers...

[Kostenbaat]

Funk? Never. A crime against humanity.

Just let them be.

[kliudrsfhlih]

i agree... let them be, i think funk would be ok or... like... something more explosive, but as i said let them be.

[J20123]

Excellent...fantastic! They could able play those kind of version by such a young age........ this song is the represention of Jazz music!

[saxmanplayer]

Jazzmalu,

the download link for this video on the B.F.J.O.'s "Joy of Swing" Website is not working. Pity,as it is one of my favourites.

Are there plans to make all the videos available via that website? Would especially like to have the concert performance of CUTE and the outdoor version of SING,SING,SING.

[KonsortEise]

Humble apologies,It has worked, even though an error message was displayed.

[KonsortEise]

Counting the minutes!!

[jazzmalu]

Wait for a week !!

[TrumpetLead]

Excellent Bass Trombone and Bari players! Saxes have amazing balance when playing that sweet harmony together. Overall balance excellent. Dynamics, tone, concious of other sections of the band playing. Definatly 5 stars from me!

[braintreecat]

Great taste and feel for this genre and style. Explosive dynamics ,control and check out the bari and bass bone. Very stylish-great sax section !!!

[ElSaxophone]

What an awesome Bari player, she sticks out, but its not overdone; perfect bass sound! way to go!!

[kentpaul65102]

[DOAer]

An all female band plus a male bass trombonist.

[philmac41]
