Alex Iles & Disneyland College Band "Blue Bossa"

This long piece features Thomas Eby on trumpet plus a rousing rhythm section with David Agee (drum set), Alex Sherer (congas, shaker stick and triangle), and Ryan McMasters with some very nice bass work. Not to mention Mr. Iles on trombone and doing a great job of leading this group. The 2007 Disneyland All-American College Band presented by Yamaha features musicians from colleges and universities around the country under the leadership of Dr. Ron McCurdy of USC.

@LXtrombone so I'm assuming it's pretty hard to get a hold of then?

[trumpetguy3039]

Woohoo!!! Go bama!!!

[LXtrombone]

The tune was arranged by Dave Slonaker when he was a student at Eastman.

Whose arrangement is this, this shit is ridiculous

lastima que la grabacion sea un tanto precaria en los medios, pero la orquesta en condiciones normales de audicion debe ser todo un lujo, muy bueno

[Trombone1991]

Mr. Iles, I'm sorry, to a students eyes it looked like a JW without the counterweight ect.

amazing playing!

Actually Trombone1991, and for the record, the horn in this video I am playing has a 50's-era 2B dual bore slide and a very lightweight bell from the 40's. I arrived at this set up swapping in/out among the 3-4 older 2B's I had at the time.
