The 8-bit Big Band just won a Grammy. It's primarily a recording band right now, but as long as the music is relevant and exciting, there will always be a place for big bands.
what an impressive history of work and down to earth guy. started to hear his show on KKJZ and wondered, did this kookie sounding dude really do all that stuff...he sounds like he's 25. so i youtubed him and found this. not a player, but as a jazz lover am really happy i did.
Mike you continue to do great things for musicians. Gordon Goodwin is special and a wonder interviewee.
Thanks so much Jim!

Thanks for doing these videos. Most of us will never have the chance to talk to these guys who are leading the way.
All it takes is a Sammy Nestico chart, guys. Had me sold just instantly too.
