Military Band I was in 17yrs ago, just transferred to computer from VHS tape.... well I know my tenor solo is a little lame but if you like drums Lou Williamson playing is terrific (just passed away at about 60yrs of age.... very sad). A bit to much echo as it was in a cement block gym.

Great band. Your tenor solo sounded good as well. Exceptional trumpet section and drummer. That must have been a fun band to play in. It must be cool to be from the same small town as Diane Krall (my favorite jazz vocalist). Thanks for posting that.

Yes actually she used to play piano in the Coast Hotel Lounge and when downtown I would go and listen. it took at least 10 min to go downtown!
Thanks for listening.

Excellent. Military band? Not the sort of stuff to inspire the troops, romeo and juliet.

Cement Gymn is on of the settings on my sound card by the way. Padded cell is another. What happened to bass and treble? Tenor isn't lame, far from it. Some body shoot the trombone player please lol.
