WHAT A WONDERFUL IDEA! STUFFING STYROFOAM CUPS INTO THE MOUTH OF YOUR TROMBONE. NOW WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT?
-
The Solo-tone has the craziest sound ever
-
great performance in Prague last night by the GMO of this song.... I wish big bands would get much more popular again, although with having the GMO concert attendance a yearly thing for me, I have noticed the crowds getting younger, so it is a good trend to see the younger generation appreciate the swinging big bands....

When I heard this, I could've sworn the solo was a theremin!
-
white people couldn't dance in the 1950's
-
They are playing this great song way too fast,itnever went that fast for Tommy,
-
I didn't realize that they took Bunny Berigans solo and harmonized it for the band.
-
I'm sure they have heard before that this is 'too fast'........but.....they are doing it in THEIR STYLE!........So try get some sophisticated knowledge and gain some WISDOM at the same time...!
-
Did I see Sam Donahue, a sax man, move into the trumpets to make 5 of them, for the Bunny Berigan passage?
-
A rather mechanical reinterpretation of TD's classic. They're rushing it and the 'bone solo lacks TD's velvety touch.
Still sellout crowds at the GMO gigs. The band sounds great and logging many, many miles a year. We remain the busiest Big Band around.
