The BIG BAND THREAD!

Jeff,

Holey Moley Foley....

Truth be known, I HATED swing/ Big Band music as a kid, as that was all I heard/was exposed to from my folks, but nowdays I absolutely LOVE it---it has to be the happiest, most uplifting music in the history of mankind. (hey, the world needed something to lift spirits during WW2!)

Satin Doll kicked ass, and In The Mood was done to the 9's. All the other tracks were equally good, if not better. I have to "kudo" you on the drum dynamics, and "feel".

The precision was spot on, and if any of the Big Band masters (Goodman, Dorsey Bros, etc.,) were alive today, I know they would want you in their bands.
HELLUVA job, dude! Wow, just WOW!

Cheers,
C. P.

Thanks. I really appreciate the compliments. I am blessed to be able to play with other musicians that are experienced in and have a love for the style. That really helps too!
