That's quite the interesting conversation. And the band name, too, is also brilliant. Reminds me of that Phish song -- wait a second, what's the name of that Phish song?
It sure is on the tip of my tongue. Boy, how that faulty memory of mine deceives me. What the hell is it called? Man, it's a really good song, too!
Oh, now I remember. I believe it was called "Simple." (And we play Be-bop in the band.)
Not sure how I found this video -- or how it found me? -- but it looks very interesting.

i need to hear your right wing conservative playing.
that should be interesting!

@ rockin3b. I respect that. Which tunes does he solo on?

@AndyMartinfan Wow you will not believe this but I swear it is true. Last weekend had a recording session and layed down extra sax harmony tracks on horn parts that included Carl on trpt.
I was talking to a cat about how great Carl is he and in reply gave me the Be-Bop big band cd. I put it on my IPOD at 10 am today and then you email me your comment a few hours late. I must have been in a p-off mood the day i posted my bs. Check out Martin on the new cd Aurora - Pat Williams

@rockin3b really? you're going to let the musicians' political opinions ruin the music for you? I'm a republican, but dear God man, enjoy the music these fine musicians are creating and leave politics out of it. I pity you.

@KlassyKamikaze, Brian Scanlon is my sax teacher! He's a great guy!
Brian Scanlon went to Eastman School of Music, plays lead tenor in Gordon Goodwin's Big Phat Band and is a TOP CALL studio musician!
You?
Also, Invitation isn't a Bebop song. It's from an old movie from the 50s with a lot a minor chords allowing for a lot of options.
