This is the a similar arrangement to what we are playing in our jazz band, although it starts later. Go Tenor!  Those runs are beastly hard! Yuck, high D's!

lol it was the 70s what do u expect

It's by Nick Lane, trombonist on right. A lot of the great compositions & arrangements from this period are his.

This is the best arrangement, I don't like the one he did when he was way older. really nice

I didn't know that. Whenever i heard the name Bissonette i always thought Jazz and it blew me away when he went to play with Roth. Thanx for the info vmi3301.

Don't forget that Greg Bissonette played for Nelson in the 90's too!
