  • Very nice. Big band stuff is wonderful and you guys really tear it up.

  • THE BEST!!!!

  • meraviglioso!!!!!!

  • Good!

  • Altissimo A isn't all that hard. Just finger it like an E and trust the overtone. Woody and others (Goodman, Shaw) often played around up that high but Woody had a habit of getting up there and staying there, like at the end of "Woodchopper's Ball". I have a chart for Artie Shaw's "Traffic Jam" calling for altissimo C. Now that's just outrageous. It's like the rest of us trying to play golf like Tiger Woods.

  • Mike Brignola is my sax teacher. He's really good.

  • yeah!! all right!!!!!!!!!!

  • 30???

    that musta been crazy, thats my entire band

  • Wish I could turn the clock back and dig Woody's Herds again...No other band ever swung like them.
