minus-squareperishthethought@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·9 days agoThank you for unlocking a memory of mine. A long time ago, I was in the marching/concert band in high school (US) and our band director LOVED this tune. Specifically this Maynard Ferguson version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvMqnF3f2f0 We played it so many times. Now, I think Ferguson always blows too hard but this tune will be with me forever. Thanks
