20-2-18. So effortless, yet so smooth a player.I used to admire Harry James but I think Derek was the better of the two. Absolutely spot on every note.So beautiful to listen to. T.Heslop.

Some time ago I uploaded a video of a classic western theme to my channel; although the primary reason was to listen to one of the great trumpeters, .. his name Manny Klein. This is a trumpeter "out of parameters". Here I leave the link: th-cam.com/video/d-cIjl8vJCY/w-d-xo.html
@ rose , denke das war in der zeit wo er krank war , es is nicht viel zu finden und ist wohl privat gehalten worden . ich vermute krebs , dem er dann auch erlag . tv today zitat (Kino-News, 25.3.2013) Der britische Trompeter Derek Watkins, der vor allem dafür bekannt war, dass er in zahlreichen Abenteuern des James Bond (von "Dr. No" bis "Skyfall") den (Trompeten)Ton angegeben hat, ist nach langer schwerer Krankhit im Alter von 68 Jahren gestorben.
Derek-Great trumpeter! R.I.P. Maestro.
I have seen many solo parts from Derek. He always played so exactly and with emotions. I think he was one of the best trumpetplayers worldwide.
Descansa en paz derek tu música siempre estará aquí hasta siempre maestro de maestros

Unbelievebel
Спасибо!
Спасибо тебе...Я рад, что тебе понравилось!
❤
3:10.. good heavens.. 😆
я вырос на этой музыке. большое спасибо!
He (unfortunately) was always everything doing on his instrument. He never was a teacher, only a player! RiP! Derek
They called him Mr. Lead for a reason! Mac Arthur Park would’ve been a good one for this tribute vid.
Immenso
Derek Watkins war ein Startompeter, leider ist er im 2013 gestorben.
"A real shame..!"
james hat es wohl net so ganz verkraftet und folge ihm 2015^^
@@teolangenBut Derek left the James Last Orchestra around 2003 already. Chuck Findley followed up.
Die letzte Szene...Derek im Rollstuhl...wann und wo war das und ist dies auf TH-cam zu finden...???
