Even had some Edison Cylinders first thing did with those was donate them to a museum for preservation. Quite a lot is things that are now public domain so no one can complain. People think rap song lyrics are obscene today listen to some of the 1916-1930 lyric. Shave ‘em Dry comes to mind first. Even Cole Porters “Anything Goes” is true today just no f words. Proves everything old is new again.

    4 minutes of constant play is an endurance test for the drummer, tuba, and one of the trombones. However, there's another bit. They changed their volume so you could hear the soloist. Then ramped up again so you could still hear them when the full ensemble kicked in again. Great stuff. Always has been and always will be.

      Easily adapted and arranged for whatever band or ensemble is playing it. I'm old enough to remember the TV series, although I was just a small youngster. I - even at that young age - was always captivated by this theme song. Written by none other than one of the best in the business, the incomparable Henry Mancini. Although a flute and piano player, Mancini seemed to be enthralled with the sound of the trombone! This music will live on forever.

    What I like about this video is that nine of the eleven musicians were late, so the drummer and tuba player started without them. Fortunately, they showed up just in time. Also, the drummer looks and acts like a character in a James Bond movie. I can't tell whether he's the hero or a villain, but then with spies, that's the way it's supposed to be.

Being outdoors, on the sloping grass with my sisters and dad and feeling those notes pass right through me(but not before they impacted my life!) those are some of my fondest memories.
      We were originally from Minnesota and the first concert I went to was Louis Armstrong when I was three years old. I do remember parts of it, the lights turning down, feeling the anticipation, the swirling blue smoke that rose from the crowd into the high ceiling and looking at all the track lights....and the spot came on, lighting only Mr. Armstrong and that gleaming trumpet and bright white handkerchief. When he blew that first note, I was hooked.
