@beedoe51 George and I were buddies at Mannes - sweet sweet guy. Thought of him tonight and was shocked to learn of his passing. How in the world did he fall I wonder? So young. Such a nice nice guy. We hung out. I would have loved to have given him a call, now... Second bone classmate to have died. I heard he did show work after the Rich band. I hope that he was doing well up until his passing....

AHA, so that's what this is called. I remember them playing this in about 1985 with Eric on lead tpt. at Penn in Philly.

I sure will pal. He hasn't signed in for over a month (ttrumpetguy). Maybe he's on some road job or something. Thanks Dante!

@zalechlabe Unfortunately George suffered a fatal accident (a fall) about 2 and a half years ago. This was told to me by Bob Bowlby lead alto. What a loss!

Awesome number. Tony Garruso does a fantastic, consistent job on lead tpt making a tough high G ending seem easy! Great solos from the two bones and lead alto! Buddy's left hand shuffle throughout is like a jackhammer and sounds great too, amazing. Can't believe it's already 27 years ago.
