i would like to hear the professor and boogsie talk about that panorama, it's like a sparrow kitch thing one pushing the other to higher levels...then passing him and pushing again...beautiful
You know i was going to bash all you fonclaire fans with this arrangement but i listened to it again and i must say he took boogsies tune and arranged the hell out of it musically its a masterpiece and i have to horse in the race im an all stars fan.So i agree with the judges this was a tie boogsie has more variety.
Me to mate.. I like especially 3:40. The steady bass & the tenor run deh.. ooohh gooood.. *them times he wasent conducting yet. just love to see pro conduct
Looked at and listened to this arrangement several times and made the comparison with Phase II. Popular names don't win competition, good arrangements do. Unfortunately this time the name did. This was an excellent arrangement by the Professor and deserved the win. May be he still need to learn how to brown-nose the powers that be.
every body knew he was to get first place, but because it was not a port of spain band they give him second neverthe less this in my view was the best composition that year, and my brother who played with this band died last year of renal cell carcinoma, hewas only 45yrs I play this in remembrance of him, since it brings back so much memories.
You know they always have to cheat this band, if they don't they don't feel good at all..... So let them keep cheating them, one day they wont be able to. i just hope that the professor lives to see, and hear it, to know all his hard work didn't go to waist. God bless Fronclair. Beautiful arrangement.
My Results (but it was hard!): 1. Phase II 2. Renegades/Fonclaire (tie..but there's no recording of Gades FINAL performance...maybe that was the deciding factor for their win!) 4. Desperadoes (good arrangement as well)
Pro actually came 1st by 10 pts in the semifinals but his demise was playing to a slower count on final night which in turn netted him a second place tie with boogsie whom he now enjoys a good friendship with. Those days pro was hungry to prove his talents
Good arrangement put not better than Phase II, come keep it real and stop fighting down Boogsie because of his man's attitude, that's the signature and unique part of the man.
Good arrangement, but Phase II all day. Nothing really distinctive in this arrangement here. Boogsie had some pretty innovative parts in his arrangement that plays well up to this day.
I grew up in south An we been played a lot with this BS !! Last time a big band win was in the 70 WTF ? Really I played with frontclair when to school in plesantvilille from marabella , played with skiffle an shades , pan man for life ..
Pans sounded so clean and the articulations of phrasing were precisely staccato in those times

Am hearing pan by storm in the first part of the song
3:40 alone oohhh go
I personally think that professor's arrangement was better. We have to come up with a better format for judging this timeless tradition.

i dont see how this tune could come close to Boogsie tune Sharpe tune was too sweet jedd
this is the year in my opinion professor won the panorama..
iconic status and town thing gave boogsie the narrowest of edge south bands do not win in town any more=that is just how things are.

judging pan not easy at all....pick another kind of music and its easy...pan is very very tough....ask any musical professor or educator
