  • Wow! Thank you so much for putting this video of the band of YouTube! I was

    just a high school kid when I discovered SF, and sure wish someone would bring

    out a CD (from the master tapes) of their recordings. I have just about worn out

    the Lps, but did fine a Twin Pack Album by UA, a stereo tape that helps bring out

    the dynamic range of this wonderful bunch of musicians!

  • Exhilarating & heartening, for any fan of innovative big-band/orchestra &/or "space age pop" music... Sauter-Finnegan forever!

  • @OttoLink10 Oh, I think I have far more than enough experience to say just about anything I wish. Refer to my site for credentials (taught music theory/composition at Univ., works published (all out of print now--music goes out of print very fast in educational markets). Point is, both Sauter and Finegan were apex writers, I tell you that Sauter's music lies wonderfully (I have done piano reductions) even under print scrutiny, but together their efforts were far less than synergenic. Too bad

  • @callmeBe Yes, serious. Yes, helpful. Reread your comments about "manufactured junk," and "novelty tunes." Then, try to locate an experienced composer/arranger to discuss this, and to try to help you HEAR what's going on. BTW, a good example of someone who was influenced by this band is Bob Brookmeyer, but with him, don't start with "manufactured junk" and "novelty tunes."

  • @OttoLink10 I don't know what your comment concerns, but it seems unhelpful at best. If you are serious, please clarify. OttoLink, many thanks!

  • @callmeBe Have you had your hearing checked lately?

  • @brustdiesel "Doodletown..." turns up pretty frequently on e-bay for little money...there was also a "Best of.." BMG cd and pretty sure it's on there, too...not sure if it's still in print, and Bill Finnegan was bugged that nobody asked him what tunes to include, but worth finding nonetheless.

  • @alfaborda No, Getz wasn't a member of this band, but he was the featured soloist on "Mickey One".

  • Jay McAllister played tuba with Stan Kenton as well.

  • well your dad played his ass off.
