I had a chance to review this piece in my freshman year of high school and honestly it taught me a lot about being able to mesh with the rest of the band while containing style ( i play electric bass 10 years and double bass 2 years). Just like the bass in the video. Also what i like about Maynard is that even though he plays extremely high he plays with clarity, precision, and most of all it fits with the rest of the music. Great peice

The matching shirts make the band look like henchmen from Batman. Anyway, Maynard really shows his trad-jazz roots as he moves through the changes.
Thanks for sharing!

@deMeij1 i think it was an over played version of Maynards yoga techniques that he used when playing. i have never been that impressed with Biviano's playing. to me, his playing way too weak to carry a trumpet section. some of his sloppier playing was while he was with Buddy Rich.
you talk about lead players, i think of Dave Stahl. he was one of the monsters in the big bands, and even Eric Miryashiro (spelling?) and Scott "Scooter" Englebright. those are monster players, not Biviano.

So what's the use of using a flugelhorn? He had so much power it just sounds like a trumpet. Great stuff though.

i wonder if Biviano ever leaned back too far, and just happened to loose his balance and fall to the deck. i would think his back bend wouldn't only be painful after a while, but wouldn't it be kinda bad for airflow?

VERY nice clip :-) The theme of "Nice'n'juicy" was used as a radio jingle for one of the most popular West German youth radio shows: "Radiothek" from 1974 to 1980... :-D

Lin Biviano in the back in the lead position weak and unimpressive as usual.

A Great transition period for the band--- Maynard just back from teaching in India and England. "Billy Graham" "Chris Pyne" "Albert Wood" were the main stays on trombone during this period, but other guest appeared with him often on the road - Like many other artist of this period like Woody herman, Picked up talented locals to fill in and make it cost effective ... That's why not all the faces are always recognizable. Just part of the times ---

I've seen Maynard in concert a couple times. One time was at Guzman Hall at the University of Miami. I had a first row seat and he was standing directly in front of me. Maynard was just incredible: He would lean back, take a deep breath and then hit all these incredibly high notes way up in the stratosphere!!! Absolutely amazing. What more can I say?
