@callmeBe Thank you so much.

@johnnyzing You are far, far more blessed than me! I have never played (or conducted) such wonderful names. I am more known for symphonic writing (see my You-tube Variantions For Orchestra) and teaching compostion and theory. At one time I wrote a bit of big band music (played by Rex Allen when he conducted the Gene Krupa big band), but my true love is the symphony. I do jazz score study, though, and so am keenly aware of Kinkade's charts (have conducted his symphonic work before). Regards

@callmeBe Hi 'Be'! Glad the god's are smiling down on me. And you too! You mentioned Dean Kinkade. I played with him [on percussion] At Disney's Top Of the World Orch in 1973. Don Lamond was on Drums [and Gene Traxler, T. Dorsey's Bass Player]. I was a young kid playing with the top pros. I loved it. We played shows and many of Dean's charts of course! Did/Do you play?

@johnnyzing The Gods of counterpoint and alternative voice leading are looking down upon you and smiling! Glenn Miller had some very adept arrangers working for him (especially Jerry Gray, and , of course Glenn was a rudimentary arranger himself), but never to the facultys of guys like Eddie Sauter or Dean Kinkade--who both wrote for Ray in the late 1940's and into the 1950's. Ray lead some highly swinging groups at that time--and very interesting to listen to as far as the arrangements.

@greychurch Thanks everyone for great comments.

@callmeBe Oh My...I was thinking the same thing. Ray had more of a swinging band with tighter, poppin' ensembles....tempos were faster tho.....yet his bands were alive! Smart comment 'Be". John-Hans Melcher
