After 14 years, this is still up as Maynard…. This is Dave Detwiler playing lead/solo. One of the longest lead player from the Army Blues. I’ve taken many lessons from him and was good friends with his son. Want to hear more, look up Army Blues with Dave in it. Biggest guidance I got from him, “make your B day sound like your A day”. Referring that all trumpeters have bad days. Just can’t let anyone think you do.
Dave Detwiler is the soloist. Steve Jones has the lyrical bits at the beginning and end. For the drummers sharing the love, that's Bruce Baldwin. From the Army Blues album titled, "Scream Machine". Roger Rossi, Jack Garner and Dave Nordland fill out the section. What a band.
This clip has been misnamed. This is the title track from the Army Blues album, "Scream Machine." My father is the pianist (what of him you can hear.) The trumpet work is indeed that of Dave Detwiler.
LeChosenOne123456 This has been wrongly attributed to Maynard for years. Here's the real story: Mark Taylor was the staff arranger for the Army Blues. He "Scream Machine" for them. They recorded it. This is that recording. The album is CALLED "Scream Machine". You can go to the Army Blues website for confirmation. Dave Stahl also recorded a somewhat different version on his album, "ANACONDA". To sell the chart, though, Mark knew no high school player could perform this, so he lowered the key from F to Bb and called it "Brass Machine". Otherwise it's the same chart, just a 5th lower. Maynard never played it, never recorded it and never performed it. Why would he? His library was certainly big enough he didn't have to raid someone else's. PLEASE, everyone, let's put an end to this misconception right now.
After much in-depth research (by which I mean ten minutes of Googling) I must concur with Michael Muskey's post below: This song (properly entitled Scream Machine) was written by Mark Taylor and originally recorded by the Army Blues Jazz Ensemble, featuring Dave Detwiler and Steve Jones on trumpet. It is the first track on their LP of the same title. Maynard Ferguson never had anything to do with this song as far as I can tell.
Im pretty sure that he covered it, thats what this is. He changed many songs slightly to more his style, and then played them himself. At least, thats what I've heard
To respond to a few post, this track was recorded under both names Scream Machine and Brass Machine. We played this track in my high school Marching band in Chantilly Va. . We had guest artist Dave Dettwiler (lead and solo trumpet forr the Army Blues) play with us on this along with many other songs and Jazz concerts back in the early 90's. His son was also in the band. I was a Sax player during that time but a few of the trumpet players in the various bands took lessons from Mr. Dettwiler.
I don’t think there is anyone in the world of music that can keep up with his easiness to really reach for those high notes. A legend forever taken too young but grateful that he once walked on this earth. His sound will never be forgotten or replaced
@@thadalberty3419 I know I know. I’m not gonna say he was actually young, I just wish we got longer with him. I’m too young myself to have gotten to experience his music until much later after his passing. Would of loved to see him in action
@@maxyenk1320 that’s true, I would’ve loved to hear someone like him, Doc Severinsen, Bud Herseth, or Maurice Andre live. I did hear Doc live once when I was a kid, but he was around 80 and past his prime.
What a legend mr Detwiler is, glad this has been cleared up, this is not maynard, even though maynard still would’ve killed this if it was written in for him
Hey I'm a woodwind player who played well above double octaves but I can't help but love the sound of a screaming trumpet! Maynard Ferguson - coconut champagne. I played that in jazz as tenor sax and the trumpet behind me broke a mirror to that song lol loved it
I play both trumpet and alto saxophone. Yeah, trumpet is about 10x harder, I never said it wasn't. However, I absolutely hate it when people think that the only thing you need to do to play notes on a woodwind is push a few buttons. Maybe that's true for a 4th grader who can play 5 notes, but if you want to be anywhere near average or beyond, there is a ton of work that goes into embouchure forming and general technique. For instance, if I want to hit a double C on a trumpet, I have to think about using powerful, quick air while pushing from my diaphragm and keeping a solid embouchure. If I want to hit that same note on an alto saxophone, I have to push the second key, keeping an open throat, use a controlled embouchure, and also use a large, yet controlled amount of air.
@dJunGi This is by the US Army Blues Band. It is off the album "Scream Machine," and the soloist is Dave Detwiler. Maynard never recorded or even played Brass Machine or Scream Machine.
What makes this piece so incredible is not just Maynard himself, but the fact that all those trumpets had to okay that high and *stay in tune*. Absolutely bonkers
AS others have said this is not MF...it is the US Army Blues... features Steve Jones on the first trumpet solo and Dave Detwieler plays the second solo and the 8va at the end!So please re title correctly!
@yellowtuwtle This is absolutely the Army Blues, Steve Jones on lead and Dave Detwiler on the solo in the 2nd part. That's also Twiler up the octave at the end. The chart was written by Mark Taylor when he was the arranger on the Army band, and is available commercially as Brass Machine. Yes, it's written down about a fourth for humans to be able to play it. You gotta know someone to get the original Scream Machine chart. I have the Brass Machine chart in my hand.........
Still. This is missed labeled after posting this a few times. This is done by the Army Blues and solo work done by Dave Detwiler. I know his for a fact as I have taken lessons from hi and seen the album he recorded it on. TH-cam Dave Detwiler and Scream Machine and you can see the transcription. MF is a hell of a player, but give credit where it belongs!!!!
Thanks for the music and the bio. I guess I never researched all of Ferguson's paths that led to his music that I first heard and loved as a middle school kid in the early 80s. I knew of his stints with some of those earlier groups but not his session work. I think I'll go look him up this weekend and see what else I can learn. Again, thanks!
actually guys, and first when this song was played by the army blues band it was called scream machine, but now the name has been changed and is now called brass machine.
United States Army Band!!! I know exactly this recording als "scream machine", played by the United States Army Band. Mybe Mynard Ferguson performed it with them at this recording. I got it at a white MC as giveaway, while they visit Japan to inaugurate the Tokyo Dome in march 1988.
The published title of this is "Brass Machine." On Dave Stahl's very first big band record(vinyl) from the 80's, "Anaconda," he recorded this very tune and titled it "Scream Machine." This youtube submission is not from that album and neither is it a Maynard Ferguson performance. Maynard never recorded or performed this. Hope this helps. BTW, if you want to purchase this chart it is by Mark Taylor and comes in both a professional and watered-down arrangement.
My high school marching band played this piece (along with Cherokee and Caravan) for our field show when I was in high school in California. We had a couple trumpeters who could nail the solos well enough too...not like Maynard, of course, but they did well. We won a LOT of competitions that year across the state. Good times.
Not Maynard it's the "Army Blues" from the lp with the same title as the song.... Dave sounds good on here!!!! Fun tune...... I think the second solo is Roger Rossi...
Living in the DC area was a blessing for us young players because we had access to so many military band menbers. The Commodores, Blues and Airmen of Note all played concerts at Chantilly High. Bruce Gates from the Note also played a guest artist concert with the Chantilly Jazz. @ssbtrumpet1, I dont know who Jack Garner is but if he wasnt in the Army Blues, he is not on this track.
I have both charts. Brass Machine is in Bb and Scream Machine is in F. It's the same chart, but Mark Taylor knew he'd never sell it at the higher range (that is from Mark himself).
Definitely not Maynard. This is "Brass Machine" ... I played this in my high school jazz ensemble. Not sure who the personnel is, but it's a great track either way. One of my favorite songs I ever performed. Even though I played 2nd trumpet at the time, this song was pretty demanding on the ole chops.
I doubt that is Maynard. I have everything he recorded and I can't find it. Dave Shahl recorded "Scream Machine" on his Anaconda album and it is a gas.
I believe that the song "Brass Machine" is the exact same as this song, but lowered a fifth, it was written for high school band. I could be wrong though.
@TrumpetMite10 Well, if you're searching for "scream Machine", It's actually called Brass Machine. Try searching for Brass Machine and let me know if you find it.
You all came here for the trumpet playing, and I respect that, but this song has got a killer drummer on it too.
Josh Bond: you ain't lying.
I came here because i love jazz. Not for the specific parts, btw the tenor sax part is tight.
Sean Paddock If you want a killer sax solo, check out "Coconut Champagne" on the "Live from San Francisco." The Bari-Sax is awesome.
I've seen it. Great video.
That's what most people that listen to Maynard ferguson come for
After 14 years, this is still up as Maynard…. This is Dave Detwiler playing lead/solo. One of the longest lead player from the Army Blues. I’ve taken many lessons from him and was good friends with his son.

I got here by searching "Scream Jazz" and I don't regret it at all.
scream aaaa spooky
Dave Detwiler is my teacher and told me the story of how he came to play this solo with the Army Blues. There is no doubt in my mind it is Dave.
golfer4lif7 DAVE DETWILER IS YOUR TEACHER??,$,?9?
mine too haha
@@jonathanorellana-sanchez2971and now look at you

Yes, I have the master tapes of this album and I know the musicians on the recording.

The lead sounds like Maynard. Either way, the song is gold!
Im pretty sure that he covered it, thats what this is. He changed many songs slightly to more his style, and then played them himself. At least, thats what I've heard
Ben Betts This isn't a cover. This isn't Maynard. This has nothing to do with Maynard. It's the Blues.
Ben Betts Maynard NEVER played this. NEVER!
this was created by maynard was it not?
Listening to 2:34 - 3:00 with high quality headphones, at max volume, is either the worst or best decision I've ever made.
Well, his picture says so..... Btw, my brother marched Mandarins the summer of 2014. So I really like Mandarins, Bluecoats, CC, and Phantom Regiment.

listen to Fantasy-Maynard Ferguson
OOOOVVVVEEEEERRRR 9000000000000000000000000000000!!
He did but it unraveled
does he really need to?
A piccolo trumpet doesn’t automatically add an octave to your range though.
At the end when he takes it up the octave 😱😱
You don't know what an octave is?
The Dashing Troll super g
Sophi Bivens
He did take it up an octave
I play this with my jazz band, and as the lead, I can without a doubt say, you feel like a FREAKING BADASS throughout this entire piece
Dave Detweiler is the guy taking it up the octave
I love how smooches the end of a high note. Such Big Spirit!
this song at half speed starting at 0:38 sounds like a song that would be played on a cowboy movie.
lol
Exactly what I told my friend, who plays first part, that part, who is a freshman
ahahaha
personally, I can see this being played in some kind of sci-fi outer space kind of kids movie, either that or some kind of cop show like chips
What about 0.75

Too young? He passed away at 78, that’s a pretty full life and career.

@@thadalberty3419 I couldn’t be more jealous! You saw a legend regardless but always sad once they lose a little bit of the range in the later years.
This is not Maynard.
As a trombone player, who's played Brass Machine many times. To these trumpet players: We are not worthy!
What a legend mr Detwiler is, glad this has been cleared up, this is not maynard, even though maynard still would’ve killed this if it was written in for him
Hey I'm a woodwind player who played well above double octaves but I can't help but love the sound of a screaming trumpet! Maynard Ferguson - coconut champagne. I played that in jazz as tenor sax and the trumpet behind me broke a mirror to that song lol loved it
you press a button and go up an octave...not as impressive as a trumpet doing it lol
rgw4 If you think playing high notes on a woodwind is as easy as just pressing a button, then you should really look into it ;)
LeChosenOne123456 if you think its equally impressive to play high on a woodwind, you should try brass sometime...

LeChosenOne123456 ok well idk what level youre on, but i know many higher level players admitting range is nothing for woodwinds
As mentioned below, this is not Maynard Ferguson. This is the Army Blues. The lead trumpet player was Dave Detwiler. I saw him play this in person...
@dJunGi This is by the US Army Blues Band. It is off the album "Scream Machine," and the soloist is Dave Detwiler. Maynard never recorded or even played Brass Machine or Scream Machine.

Funny and original
This horn section has to be one of the strongest I've heard since the horn section MF had back in 77' - The higher the louder the better!
Is that Mario Kart 9??? Nah, it's just awesomeness. I sincerely feel this could be the credits for the next Mario Kart game. Like if you agree
Mario kart 8 sound track was recorded by Eric Miyashiro, who used to play with Maynard Ferguson and in the same style
Well that explains why the soundtrack is so awesome.
What a nightmare of a song for a trumpet player. Maynard was a genius and all of his musicians were absolutely amazing. 😂
Band director told me to listen to Maynard Ferguson, that's why I'm here.
You are listening to Dave Detwiler and the Army Blues.
AS others have said this is not MF...it is the US Army Blues... features Steve Jones on the first trumpet solo and Dave Detwieler plays the second solo and the 8va at the end!So please re title correctly!
Oh yeah this is going to be my 1920s D&D final Boss music
AMAZING SONG i am a trumpet player myself and im just astonished of how good this is. also great playlist BTW!!
@yellowtuwtle This is absolutely the Army Blues, Steve Jones on lead and Dave Detwiler on the solo in the 2nd part. That's also Twiler up the octave at the end.

The best part is at 3:56 where the trumpet(s) goes up the octave......AWESOME
Man,what great music.
Brass Machine! Greatest trumpet fanfare ever!
our marching band is playing this! amazing song!!
Still. This is missed labeled after posting this a few times. This is done by the Army Blues and solo work done by Dave Detwiler.

The first trumpet solo is Dave's long time friend Steve Jones
One of my favorites from High school band
This song is brass machine. I just played it this year in jazz band.
This song is a masterpiece
It gives me chills
I love this...
Thanks for the music and the bio. I guess I never researched all of Ferguson's paths that led to his music that I first heard and loved as a middle school kid in the early 80s. I knew of his stints with some of those earlier groups but not his session work. I think I'll go look him up this weekend and see what else I can learn. Again, thanks!
You'll likely learn that this is not Maynard Ferguson and that he never recoeded this tune.
I'm so glad that this is the first result for scream machine :)
I’m scrolling through this, and it’s a bunch of things only trumpeters would get
OMGGGGG 1:30 is where the goosebumps start!!! He's so amazing!!
This is amazing.
THis recording is the Army Blues from the album Scream Machine, recorded in the mid-80s. Bill Chase was already dead when this song was written.
actually guys, and first when this song was played by the army blues band it was called scream machine, but now the name has been changed and is now called brass machine.
@MrJazzChilli Yes... it is brass machine, but it is called "Scream Machine" because the trumpet is played higher than the original.
United States Army Band!!! I know exactly this recording als "scream machine", played by the United States Army Band. Mybe Mynard Ferguson performed it with them at this recording. I got it at a white MC as giveaway, while they visit Japan to inaugurate the Tokyo Dome in march 1988.
Love that solo
one my fav trumpet songs
God, not within a million miles of Maynard's sound.
Ye, maynard's is complete crap compared to this.

listen in 2x speed volume max
2:48 rip
@bchipster it is indeed. i have this on vinyl because my dad joined the blues a little after this recording was made.
My high school marching band played this piece (along with Cherokee and Caravan) for our field show when I was in high school in California. We had a couple trumpeters who could nail the solos well enough too...not like Maynard, of course, but they did well. We won a LOT of competitions that year across the state. Good times.
we're playing a different version of this song for jazz band and it sounds amazing
I wish I could play this
Yes, you are correct it is the Army Blues. The scream part was performed by Jack Garner. I have the record and I used to study with Jack.
Best part in the song 2:34-3:03 But now my ears are destroyed. And I gotta say it was worth it.
3:47 on wards gives me the chills everytime
I'm a freshman I play trumpet and I have the first solo you hear. Its pretty legit song once you learn how to play it
Has anybody noticed the description of the video on the side ? It's amazingly long !!!!!!!!
Not Maynard it's the "Army Blues" from the lp with the same title as the song.... Dave sounds good on here!!!! Fun tune......
これぞトランペット！
He is one person of the trumpeters most famous for Japan.
Awesome!!!
Not Maynard it's the "Army Blues" from the lp with the same title as the song.... Dave sounds good on here!!!! Fun tune...... I think the second solo is Roger Rossi...
Thanks!!!!
That is a wonderful solo,omg i wish i could be his student :'(
My band is playing this. (Tavares middle school)
GO PATRIOTS!!!!!!!
yeah...he was my private instructor for 5 years.
My mind went in the gutter when I saw the title.... The internet really destroyed me...
@RYUU91 Scream Machine and Brass Machine are similar songs but Scream machine is taken up an octave by the trumpets
1:30 Hell yes.
Living in the DC area was a blessing for us young players because we had access to so many military band menbers. The Commodores, Blues and Airmen of Note all played concerts at Chantilly High. Bruce Gates from the Note also played a guest artist concert with the Chantilly Jazz. @ssbtrumpet1, I dont know who Jack Garner is but if he wasnt in the Army Blues, he is not on this track.
THANK YOU. its the Army Blues
I have both charts. Brass Machine is in Bb and Scream Machine is in F. It's the same chart, but Mark Taylor knew he'd never sell it at the higher range (that is from Mark himself).
i dont know if im right but i think this song is called brass machine. it doenst matter though because i love this song
Brass Machine is an easier arrangement of this tune, a perfect 5th lower.
As much as I love Maynard, the solos sound way too crisp and clean to be him.
its dave detwiler
Listen to Maynard's stuff from the 50's, as clean and tight as it gets
Yes MF was the Boss... but this is The Blues, this is a transcription of Dave Detweiller's solo th-cam.com/video/y8UQKr5hO5g/w-d-xo.html
Have you ever heard Where's Teddy by Maynard? Talk about crisp!
Is anyone else here after looking up “action jazz”?
This isn't Maynard Ferguson, it's Dave Detwiler :3
Alaric Lacey no wonder it sounded good
Alaric Lacey and it's not scream machine it's brass machine
brass machine is scream machine just down a 5th i think. this is actually scream machine
FugsLèCyon well I'm dumb then lol same song different names different keys
FugsLèCyon but it makes sense with the fact of how much is screaminh
Cool thanks
Who’s listening to this in 2019?
xFiNNEAS x mr
Definitely not Maynard. This is "Brass Machine" ... I played this in my high school jazz ensemble. Not sure who the personnel is, but it's a great track either way. One of my favorite songs I ever performed. Even though I played 2nd trumpet at the time, this song was pretty demanding on the ole chops.
Eric bud, get your stuff together
Almost had it there bud, next time Eric
good
@JDMpanda16 it is... but its called scream machine because of the screaming trumpet, i think ^^
I doubt that is Maynard. I have everything he recorded and I can't find it. Dave Shahl recorded "Scream Machine" on his Anaconda album and it is a gas.
UMMB played it this year for their homecoming show. It works well.
dude...it doesnt matter, lets just listen and enjoy and not care who its by.
I play trumpet to this is good
Josef Suarez Same. Its amazing.
Jack Fairclough How old and how long?
+Jack Fairclough 19, 10
Its the same thing brass machine is just in a different key to make it easier for the trumpet players were playing it in my jazz band as well
I believe that the song "Brass Machine" is the exact same as this song, but lowered a fifth, it was written for high school band. I could be wrong though.
@TrumpetMite10 Well, if you're searching for "scream Machine", It's actually called Brass Machine. Try searching for Brass Machine and let me know if you find it.
Why isn’t the actual album from The Army Blues on Apple Music or any other music platform?
If I had a dollar for every time someone commented that dave detwiller was lead, I’d be able every trumpet ever
@pa5436 good is kind of an understatement, don't you think?
Is Dave Detwiler still alive? I'd love to see him in concert after hearing this.
Yes! He is alive
Ken Weller When I talked to him last night, he seemed alive to me.
this is a dave stahl piece yet this is a cover recording of maynard and his band... he enjoyed doing that alot
