What most impresses me is three trombonists are capable of being the lead, each offering what they do, and one guy is like three bass trombonists. There is no weak link.
You realize that now you are the Brass Section Gods of every High School and College marching band in the country. They will all look up to you now that they realize the true potential of their trombones. Now they know they can be cool! Excellent job and very creative!
My wife and I always loved the Glen Campbell version of this song and we would listen to it often, but when I found this version it would bring tears to her eyes.
I've been listening to this chart and this recording for probably 5 years. I keep coming back to it. That oughta tell you something, gentlemen. I find it interesting that the lead trombonist (sorry, don't know his name) goes out to 4th position for D above the bass clef staff. That isn't normal, as most players will play that note in 1st position, but hell -- I can't argue with success, especially in the 4th line D in the treble clef, which he plays with authority and sensitivity. I'm a euphoniumist and bass trombonist (aw, hell, I play tuba too, but don't tell anybody) and I recognize artistry when I hear it. You guys rock!
Nice arrangement and great performance! The bass trombonist reminds me of George Roberts and the three other tenors could hold their own in any setting.
Love all your arrangements and especially like the stylistic way you play them. You are the group I always dreamed of playing in. keep it going---please. From a 65 year old who knows great trombone playing.
This is one of the best I've heard in years. It's beautiful, and can only make one see the true range of an instrument which sits in the background of most compositions - I'm going next to get their album on Amazon.
There is not much on this planet that sounds as rich as a trombone quartet. The added rhythm section is the icing on the cake. Lovely sound, great video work.
If you played this for a kid and they decided not to play the trombone you should have their head examined! This is why the trombone is the most beautiful instrument.
Best version of Wichita Lineman I've ever heard. Here's my reaction, guys. Whenever I hear David Lanz, I want to go practice my piano. Whenever I hear you 4, I want to practice my trombone. Are you publishing your charts yet?
Simply top shelf, hats off gentlemen you nailed it. I wish Mr. Glen Campbell where able to enjoy this arrangement as he is going thru a difficult time now, very very good.
Great job guys! I grew up listening to this song in the seventies, and I loved a lot of what Glen Campbell did in his career. I really enjoyed your interpretation of this wonderful song. Keep them coming guys, I look forward to your video's.
+Jacob Ramos All four are playing trigger bones in this video. Carl usually plays a straight tenor, though. Trigger horns are generally large bore, and you can get a big, rich sound from them and a solid low register. The trigger is also a convenience. The straight horn gives you a bright sound and it is easier to play higher. In this group, the lead player often uses a straight to play in the higher registers, while the second and third players may choose a trigger bone for its better control in the lower register.

The best tribute to Glen, RIP to Mr. Campbell. Well played gentlemen.

Man I wish these guys were still putting out content. So tasty. 🎶

The harmonies in this rendition make the hair on my arms stand up... just STELLAR work.

Just beautiful ❤
The very best of Jimmy Webb
A beautiful Jimmy Webb composition, beautifully arranged, beautifully played and beautifully recorded. Thanks Maniacal 4 for the beauty you produce.
The bass is incredibly articulate.... Amazing

Bob Dylan said upon hearing Wichita Lineman for the first time, "this is a perfect piece of music." These guys make it even better!!
I'm a fan. Point me at an album, I feel like I should be giving these guys my money.
Ricky Nelson
I found one of their albums
www.amazon.com/Carry-Maniacal-4/dp/B00EIMICXS/ref=tmm_acd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&sr=&qid=
Aaaand it's on Google Play. Well played.
Ricky Nelson There's a second one!
Wow!! What a blalanced sound. Love it it!!
Outstanding !!! Can’t stop listening to this arrangement. Well done !!!
Someone make this into a clean 10 hour loop? I'm literally in love with this.
Stop saying literally
Wonderful, Great job fella's!
OMG I'm just in love with this song
Bravo Gentlemen! Excellent tonality, damn! I truly loved this.
Qué suave y hermosa interpretación. Excelente versión. Felicidades les quedó linda.

Superb playing and great arrangement

+MrTBoneMalone Loved it but missed the "telegraph effect" that Glenn's version had. dit dat dit dat dit dat ...;)
+MrTBoneMalone My favorite version is with Sammy Davis Jr on "Something For Everyone"!!
Awesome!.................. Tear on my eyes...but happiness in my soul ! Great performance !
I have always loved this song - you guys have made it even better. You blend and play so well together. I'm so glad you are sharing your talents.
Thank you Maniacal, wonderful musicians each and every one of you.
I can't stop listening to this track. I feel like I'm praying. You guys are a gift.
The 6 cuts you have released are all HUGE. Legendary stuff - the kind of tunes you will compare new talents to. Can't wait for the cd. Kudos
Perfection! 4 impressive musicians.
***** Plus a very impressive rhythm section as well
Wow. Glen Cambell would love it, but also the writer of this strangely beautiful tune, Jimmy Webb.
outstanding
Rest in Peace Glen Campbell - way to go lads!
Great arrangement, so well played!(appreciated as a trombonist)
Carl's solo.....goosebumps.
What a great sound! I had less respect for trombones until I listened to these guys. Well done!
Very nice, I love this song, have it in a thousand versions :) and you guys played it beautifully!! Great job!
Wow! Impressive arrangement and performance! Lush and powerfull in one recording!
Absolutely Gorgeous! Thank you!
Different and very nice.
My Father passed away before TH-cam arrived but would have loved stuff like this.
Beautiful chart, beautifully played.
It gave me the chills great job
I have to play the Frank Mantooth version of this as a solo in jazz. I hope that I can sound like you guys! Amazing work!
Hey Matt I'm Bernadette your trombone student, at band camp keep up the good work!!!
Je suis fan, vous êtes géniaux les mecs!
This is so lovely good amazing sounds 💞💞
Hermosa melodia Sigan haciendo vídeos saludos desde Mexico
I agree with previous comment “nailed it “. RIP GLEN
Fabulous. Well done, guys.
Awesome Glen Campbell treatment. RIP Glen.
Absolutely fantastic!
Superb! Soothing down to the bones 😉
Brilliant.
This is really feel-good
Beautiful!
Isso é lindo demais! Qual a possibilidade de conseguir essa Partitura!
Great playing, guys!
No Words !
Great
Awesome!
This song is really suited to trombone.
Smooth y'all! Bet I'll be hearing this in an elevator sooner or later. :)
Don Crowder Best elevator music yet, yo.
超キレイな音憧れる
Sweet.
Coisa Maravilhosa. Como consigo essa Partitura
Let's go Alex Dubrov.
i would love to play the bass trombone part!
I think Glenn is hearing this in heaven tonight
The trombone band director at my honors band is a member of this channel lol
I'm not sure why those other musicians are even there. When you've got four trombones, that's all you need.
U guys should play stars and stripes
sweet...
Y'all should do dindi. That would sound amazing.
how could u dislike this
Maybe they're sax players?
Riley James probably, freaking sax players smh
is there anywhere to access this arrangement?? love it so so much
Extremely tasty!
Ho!!! my God!!
Fine. Nothing but.
rip GC
My old private lesson teacher
Set up a 360° camera!
👍
Please Any idea of where to get this arrangement. Id love to do with 4 trumpets
ho!! my god
Velvet
Love, but mix the bass bone up a little louder!
I should give you money
Inspired X300
What model bass trombone do you guys use? It looks and sounds much better than my Bach 50B2LO
Maniacal 4, I've always wondered why you have two tenors one no trigger and the other is trigger. Can you please explai n why?
+Jacob Ramos All four are playing trigger bones in this video. Carl usually plays a straight tenor, though. Trigger horns are generally large bore, and you can get a big, rich sound from them and a solid low register. The trigger is also a convenience. The straight horn gives you a bright sound and it is easier to play higher. In this group, the lead player often uses a straight to play in the higher registers, while the second and third players may choose a trigger bone for its better control in the lower register.
Carl needs to be doing studio work.
Thanks Patrick!
Jimmy Webb, not Glenn Campbell.
