Another enthusiastic fan. Wonderful arrangement and IMO this 2006 recording of Not Quite Yet is a better performance than the version on their Old School : New Lessons CD 2005. Better solos all round Bobs really rocks!
Maybe it's the NY audience :) thanks very much for posting it. Great stuff.
I actaully got to meet Bob in Fort Wayne for a Jazz contest a couple weeks after this performance, we played computer and he gave our band complements on our playing.
@martyg374 NO WAY.... This is What a Jazz Band is Truly about ... whats the point of only saying half of what you need to say.... I could listen to both of these guys solo all day. A True Jazz Band is about getting Jazz players together a playing great music
As a a piano & sax player, I think there is too much piano solo in the arrangement, even though it is excellent. A big band is about horns, use them more in the arangement.
Someone above stated tenor player overplay. could never be the case :)

I saw Bob Mintzer perform at Highland High School in Arizona today. He came for a jazz competition.
I tell you, it is one thing to see Bob Mintzer on Youtube. It is another to see him live.
If you see him live, you will swear to Jesus Christ that you will listen to his songs...
FOREVER!!!!!
