live "west coast" jazz octet -OCH-TETE

[AndyW]

a video of our first gig, about a year ago.
- plenty of tricky sight reading with those Dave Pell charts.
the band's currently "resting" due to lack of work.
That's me on tenor with my bumper-box of blues scales.

That was great Andy thanks for sharing - any more?

Very nice and the sound was pretty good too. Glad to be able to hear the bari and the tenor so clearly.

Not so sure about the keyboard sound - why do players choose those sort of sounds ?

Any more to share with us ?

hehe keyboard player think if they have a sound on the keyboard they have to use it..
band sounded prety good all round,, i would have had the front line standing much closer together.. and the ppor bari player was pushed next to the toilet door, just like me when i play bari..

great

I enjoyed it too, but why did you keep hiding Andy? 🙂

 

[AndyW]

thanks for the replies, everybody.
there's no more online that I know about - I'll have a word with Jenny the
bassist when I see her next, I could Flash the videotape here in the office.

Alan - on the borrrowed keyboard - won this year's
BBC Scotland young jazz player of the year -
maybe he'll buy himself a proper piano with the prize money !

I'm only hiding 'cause the Hunchback of Notredame is my cousin,
and in my family we call him "The Handsome One"....
