It's fun to hear this group, but not a very good arrangement--way too much in tutti if it is in melody or riffs, and there is a real need for some key changes by the time you get 3:00 into the tune. Also, at 4:18 would be the perfect time for another change in key (maybe to the IV to slow down the intensity generated by the duel saxes). Anyway, it's nice to hear guys and gals out there still swinging and carrying on the tradition. Thanks Jazzmen for the fun post!
Nice video, 1st heard Claude Bolling from the soundtrack of "Borsalino". I have a Scopitone video of Claude doing "Madison Time", early 60's. Great stuff!
