That "Superman" audio track is actually Walt Johnson on the fourth CHASE album after Bill had died. I was taking lessons with Walt at this time, that album was "Watch Closely Now".

I still have the original vinyl for the album and a 45 of this single too!

By the way, I have played gigs with Walt and he can play louder than hell when needed or appropriate, killer chops and a hell of a nice guy too!

@th3drummers Not true... Personally, my top 10 are the Stan Kenton arrangements of "Send In The Clowns," "A Little Minor Booze," and "Malaguena," Arturo Sandoval's "A Mis Abuelos," "Rhythm of Our World," and "Brassmen's Holiday," Woody Herman's arrangement of "Apple Honey," Dizzy's "Groovin' High," Maynard's version of "Cruisin For A Bluesin',"and any good arrangement of "La Fiesta."

@Hoboninja1000 Right.... Sure you can. Remember that people can't readily detect sarcasm on the webs. And if you think you can do better, let's start with you posting a clip of you playing a clear and in tune GG...

@Hoboninja1000 Everybody says they can play better than a professional player, of course, lots of people do. How about it then, prove it, have you ever been broadcasted on TV or Youtube or played at a concert in front of 200,000 people before?

This was published as a big band arrangement by Les Hooper, without the "chick" vocals, of course. I have it.

That's what I'm talkin' about. No WUSSY trumpet section!
