Maynard was so amazing as a tpt player that sometimes people forget how good of a leader he was. What great bands he had for so many years, and mostly young players. Also, such a showman! A true master entertainer!

I have seen Maynard many times. What I remember most about his concerts was the audible gasp from the audience when Maynard hit one of his high notes. It was visceral. RIP Maynard.

All I remember about the Maynard Ferguson show my dad took me to in 1976 is that it was LOUD! I mean, CRAZY LOUD. Every horn/woodwind went through the PA. The drums went through the PA. It was Rock concert loud. That's all I can remember. 😂

I played tenor sax on this song in High School Jazz Band 1973-1976. Erie Pa Strong Vincent High School. This chart was so awesome to play . When we toured other High Schools in town , this was so much fun to play . I even saw Maynard and his band live in Erie and in either Endboro State College or Allegheny College . Now almost 60, looking back these were my favorite times in High School . I have a Selmer Mark VI and have woodshedded many many times over the years .

Why was there no drum solo? I played this chart many times during my 53 years as a drummer. There was always a short solo when the other players were doing their solos; and a longer one that brought in the closing riff. Different bands have arrainged it different ways, but I've not seen a good drummer (like this one) completely frozen out.

I disagree. I think it is a very creative trombone solo. He is playing ideas over the extensions and alterations of the chords. He is a different type of player than Randy Purcell, who is great, and a bit more high energy. Still, this is a great solo. Listen both to how exploratory he is from a harmonic standpoint, and how he develops his ideas melodically. You may not like it or prefer it, but I think it is high quality, and worthy of respect.

Have you ever considered what type of music this is and what genre of music it was, it was a Latin piece and the player “Maynard” known for his high notes or “squealing” on his songs, the only thing is if you look on his actual albums, he plays his “squealing” quite lyrical like no other player could at his time. Besides, he plays his “squealing” to give entertainment, if he was to play like Soprano I bet he would play in the register’s that would be match the type of music. But that is your opinion and I guess you just didn’t like the music that you just listened too.
