John Fedchock is one of the greatest trombonists on earth. I dont care what anyone says, his chops just never quit ever!

[@rogerfiets362]

I played in a 9 piece horn band with John at Ohio State in the late 70's. I'll never forget the first time I heard him play the melody of this arrangement. Brilliant!

[@LIRRM1]

I don't remember the cartoon sounding like this..LOL! THIS A KICK ASS ARRANGEMENT!!!NICE!!!

[@cjgaddy]

John Fedchock is UNBELIEVABLE.

[@pulledpork9778]

A perfect amalgamation of pure dexterity, skill, and haha funny.

[@mpcoleman]

Thumbs up if you love Mark's mullet....and his solo.

[@nventi]

Mark Vinci ladies and gentlemen! WOO!

[@jacobruiz97]

John is a Beast!. Reminds me of Alan Kaplan

[@hanspetersalentin]

Trombone player is outstanding :)))

[@zenchord]

Fantastic!

[@mmaybrown]

This is kick-ass!!! Just amazing! The Flintstones would be proud!!

[@OlesonMD]

This is a "killer " chart, and they do such a great job on this tune!

[@Harveycartoonlvr11]

OMG! This is truly great...the Sax (of course) the Trumpet, and that "BONE"...I'm in the Chicago Area and would have driven up to Winnetka to see these guys! :)

[@DavidNefos]

Damn thats fast!!

[@willriley22]

i just met him last week and took a few of his masterclasses

[@holygroove2]

Been trying to find this for so long - love the melody!

[@63Baggies]

Nice Chart..

[@dylangatenby9928]

Awesome chart with a great performance of this!!

[@lordofchaos928]

My colleges Jazz band (UT Dallas) is playing with him next friday

[@CPez]

That’s how you practice tour keys kids!

[@dannykeys297]

Hey Jon, its Danny from Prime Time. hope all is well

[@JohnFedchockMusic]

@@dannykeys297 Hey Danny! I hope all is great with you!

[@holygroove2]

It's a combination of things - using the natural breaks in the range of the intrument combined with what we call doodle tongue. He's got plenty of endurance, and he's mastered that technique, but I find the people (Fontana, Watrous, etc) don't have the projection that I like to hear. It's just another to play though, and if you can do it, it's all good.

[@KB4QAA]

Very clever arrangement!

[@ExcaliburLost]

The guy in the bottom left of the brass section looks like my grand dad.

[@markfdesimone]

i hear some serious grit in the trumpet soloist's chops, but i think he might be going for that on purpose... he's got some really nice licks in there, IMO.

[@concernedconch]

@shizohal That's Barry Ries on trumpet. Among the unsung Jazz heros on the faculty of the University Miami Jazz program, he may be the one of the greatest living trumpet players. Definitely right up there with wynton, maynard and randy brecker. You should see him play trumpet and drums at the same time!!!

[@stevenhogenson4880]

RE: Ries -- Ah, no. Not on par with Wynton, Maynard and Brecker...not based on this video. Maybe this was a bad day for him but while he's got ideas and fingers, sound is poor and range seems pretty limited.

[@ericschultz6539]

​@@stevenhogenson4880 Uncomparable. His playig has nothing to do with those 3. He has BETTER ideas than the 3 technicians cited above, but not as much chops. Let's say he is comparable with … Dave Douglas…

[@stevenhogenson4880]

@@ericschultz6539 -- I can't stand Dave Douglas

[@Elliot84]

I didn't understand that trumpet solo. that trombone solo was killing and so is the arrangement

[@ericschultz6539]

Hopefully, 12 years later you get it now!

[@TehWinnerz]

@Filipe0333 hahaha, amazing trolling

[@marcrekart9089]

Nice but quote the melody in its original form.

[@mustafa1name]

You mean Jurassic mode? Doh-Yabba-Dabba-Do-So-La-T... Rex

[@magnus3000]

Yikes!

[@putitinthepocket]

That Riley cat is just just one tiny step bellow Buddy. WOW !

[@ericschultz6539]

One step above… But only IMHO…
