- The year is 1990, the place is panorama night at the Brooklyn Museum and master arranger Clive Bradley is about to win his third New York panorama with this arrangement. Bradley captures the crowd before the intro is even completed. The audio recording is not very good (from the archive vaults), but it allows you to hear those classic Clive Bradley movements, transitions and urban influences. In addition, at 5 min 53 sec - you can hear the solo Clive Bradley asked a young Garvin Blake to put in. Indeed, a sign of good things to come in the future of Mr. Blake. This particular incarnation of Metro Steel Orchestra ushered in the beginning of the era of large New York steel orchestras of more than 100 players... Tony Joseph captain...
My first panorama. The video is replaying the end part over and over and never comes to the completion of the tune. But nice nice nice anyway!
In my opinion Clive did his best work in the Apple...beautiful arrangement.
It was fun playing this!
It was around 11pm on Friday night before Panorama and the tune still had no ending! Bradley came to the yard a little later and put on the ending. This arrangement was a high water mark for New York. A solo for the ages with Bradley putting in some well placed bass lines to accompany Garvin's front line. Too bad the band always had "other drama" going on that kept this magical combo from remaining as a team. We'll always have 90!
....I played this ...and Marilyn.....(Ash wed jail).....
