Dank Heer Rudolfensis.

Yes, it's indeed the great Butch Miles on drums.

Thanks for sharing. Your father must have been a great musician. 🙂

Fully agree Anthony. :)

Thanks.

Thanks Frank.

Thanks Julian. Very short solo unfortunately!

It was recorded a long time ago from a radio broadcast on a cassette (tape) and converted to mp3 some years ago. Never released on LP or CD. I can get you a copy of the MP3 if you let me know your email through a private message.

Thanks Julian. That recording was made a long time ago, I think (hope!) we can do a better job now!

Thanks Udo, much appreciated. OL Four**** mouthpieces should perform well on a Buescher Super 400, which are great horns. A risk could be that original Four**** often has a small tip opening and sound a bit mellow (mine is refaced to an 8* tip, but original they don't go over 5 or 5* max). My pro friend Rinus Groeneveld plays the same horn as you with a Ponzol 120 Super mouthpiece, which gives more power and a brighter sound to the horn. But we are all different and the only one who can answer what will sound good for you on your horn is you. Experimenting will give you answers, but can be an expansive process! Good luck with the search.

@@mrpeebee1 I agree with you on everything 👍🏽

I fully agree!

You're welcome.

Glad you liked it. 🙂

Glad you liked it Daniel. Indeed one of the best concerts I've ever visited (and I've seen a lot!).

Thanks Julian. That was indeed a big party with all the horns. Three baritones is unique, as well as all the trombone players we had active on the stage! 😀

Thanks Daniel, glad you liked it and agree with all your comments. Unfortunately the great Butch Miles died recently, very sad.

Je ne savais pas que Butch Miles était mort récemment, je suis très ému. Je l'avais découvert en juillet 1979, au sein de l'orchestre de Count Basie, au festival de Montreux. Son jeu à la fois subtil et électrique galvanisait un orchestre en pleine forme. Inoubliable.

I know both guys from audience who did that very well, especially one of them! But the band members also did scream after that famous Jacquet solo intro lick!

Thanks Julian Pressley, for your warm compliment! 😀🎷

Thanks a lot Julian. 😀

Thanks a lot Julian, your comments are much appreciated.

Thanks Julian. 😀

Vielen dank, Udo. 🙂
