This band is one of the best I heard from Emment's collection of top musicians. Dick Oattts and Terell Stafford are playing so well - and their solos are just plain grooving & "hip" - Kyle Poole and of course Peter Washington ...so relaxed and happening! (Pete Magadini)
Go check out this big band called “central Washington university jazz band 1” they do two renditions of Skylark, one with their lead alto Lucas Simpson and another with Dick Oats as a guest artist. I won’t bias you with my opinion but you tell me which of the two had a better set of that same chart when you’re done.
Studied with Oatts back in the day, he’s a wonderful teacher, an alto saxophone legend.
Excellent solos by Terell and Emmet. Never forget how great Freddie and Herbie were.
The interaction between Emmet and Kyle during his solo... so intense! And then a killer drum solo too! OH man what a band.

יפה מאוד מר כהן!!! תודה🤓
Smoking!!!!!
Was kyle dragging? Can't tell why they kept dropping the beat. Seems like Peter was pushing?
They just went a little looser/freer w/the rhythm n time signature
Oatts was dropping time a little i think, the band was all looking at each other to make sure they stayed together
That was oattes I think.
yeah.....i hope oatts is ok....something wasnt right
Kyle was trying to keep the shit together. Oatts was dropping beats playing behind
and with peter washington and kyle poole :)
Bro is that Harvel in the back??
Loving the music, and great trumpet playing, but i must say that is the most asymmetric offcenter embouchure I've ever seen. By a lot.
i dont think Mr Oatts was feeling well........something aint in
