Things ain't what they used to be.memory big band

[Gandalf20000]

I heard an awful lot of cracked notes in the trumpet section, especially on the backgrounds for the clarinet solo and at the ritard at the end. Also, maybe the arrangement is slightly different from the version I've played, but I couldn't hear the lead player's high E at the end, and I had to strain to hear the C# in the second player's part. Was the trumpet section just worn out?
