  • stupid question 2 ask, but is that Woody herman? :P where r the dynamics.....

  • so wheres the REAL trumpet player lol

    

  • oh man....how i love jazz clarinet....the players got to be real good though...he sounds to symphonic-ee it sounds really bad. Woody Herman does a good job of that!

  • I had the honor of seeing Woody Herman play at Wolf Trap in Vienna, Virginia in the summer of 1985. Incredible show.

  • god love woody

  • haha, I'll be playing a similar version of this with U-Jay at the Woody Herman festival in Milwaukee next weekm playing with the drummer who I think is in this, Joe Pulice.

    Kind of Ironic. He wen to the same school I am now with my dad, so my dad knew him and now I'll be playing this song with him, sweet.

  • Thanks for this. I had the pleasure of seeing Mr. Herman live on three occasions. First time in a huge arena (he was part of a BIg Band conclave) Second tine a dinner theater, and the last time in a small nightclub -- where I got to meet him. He signed an LP for me, which I treasure. Back in the 80's I was working the cruise ships with my act. I turned down a NCL booking on the Norway as the rumor was it was going into dry dock - it didn't. This was the cruise I missed.

  • As a big band leader and arranger for jazz music,I cut my saxophone section even smaller. I put in more brass to do the Ferguson and Kenton charts along with my arrangements.The only way to play jazz. is to have the band screaming and smokin' with brass.

  • tooooooooooo rite mate!!

  • roger ingram..my god whadda monster
