Not to take away from Maynard's phenomenal playing, but the electric bass in this song is downright amazing.

[Shukkoku]

this makes me proud to play the horn

[WoWintosh]

Fuck I don't want to play the trombone solo. Too damn high.

[Mr1337drummer]

love the bass line in this. plus, you know, everything else.

[6492004]

I saw him play this song live at Kobacher Hall in Bowling Green Ohio in 1983 I think. One of his most awesome songs and his improvazation finishing on a very high note is one that I will always remember as one of his most exciting energetic songs.

[FINBONE2]

[jwryals1982]

3 people were in shock of the extreme high register and accidently hit the dislike button

[FrenchFlower1]

@jwryals1982 NOPE...THEY'RE JUST PLAIN IDOITS!!!!!!!! (Let's throw-'em overboard)

[yankz57]

Trombone solo FTW!

[ricobert1]

[buddadude99]

Great tune - the best he ever did IMHO

[xGoDxAkUmAx]

[AlexSchmidt1992]

There are three people who hate music.

[robalexg]

Floyd Fried and the Tech Tones- Hutchinson-Central Tech High School! c/o 1992 - 1996! We loved this song! Played it ALL OVER THE EASTERN SEABOARD! Won Fourth Place at the Berklee College of Music and Jazz Festival the first time we entered in 1994! Eric Biondo and King Susaphone on Trumpet! Rob Grissom on Backup Keyboard!

[Cedman00]

[Skelmins]

Does anyone have sheet music for this, its so amazing

[kurineco13]

@Skelmins I've got the first trumpet part for this. The jazz band I'm in is playing this exact copy for our concert during december.

[Skelmins]

@kurineco13 Is there any way you could get the full score to me please. I would appreciate it so much :)

[lukedogg90]

[SimochiChox]

2006 my high school rhythm section just demolished this song.

God I love it.

[spudhufer]

that trombone solo is insane ...My highschool (Oceanside also got to play with maynard and Chick Corea)

[buddadude99]

@spudhufer It's not a trombone - it's a superbone

[mattsvhstrombone]

Awesome! I'm pretty sure my band may be playing this this year... And I'mma be getting myself a nice trombone solo! =)

[xXbassisloveXx]

[mattsvhstrombone]

How you doing on that?

[xXbassisloveXx]

[mattsvhstrombone]

You can do it!

Bleh! I suck at soloing... as you can probably easily tell...

[xXbassisloveXx]

[EvanTempleton]

[ktrum492]

Which one? The monette or the jet-tone?

[bandgeek0408]

[EvanTempleton]

the jet-tone 5D, it was actually given to my teacher by him

[bandgeek0408]

wat size mouthpiece is it?

[ktrum492]

Never mind on my comment about the t-bone solo, I'm now pretty sure that it's Steve.

[Skelmins]

anyone know where i can get an mp3 for this?

[HeelofTim]

My high school jazz band almost got to do a workshop with Maynard. But it was scheduled shortly before he passed on... :(

[ktrum492]

Is the t-bone solo steve wiest or tom garling? does anyone know?

[duaner66]

I saw them play this live in Cincy... Stev Weist on trombone was amazing!!!! him and Tom Garling are the best Maynard ever had...This band on this recording is one of the best he had coming up thru the years... this stuff is always great to listen to...brings back great memories..the drummer and bass are brothers..Bissenett or something like that..very tight!

[bribo1]
