Just heard this arrangement of Stevie's tune on Sirius this afternoon. Immediately brought it to Vaughn Wiester's (director of Famous Jazz Orchestra, Columbus, OH - and, amazing "bone" player) attention. I'll bet if Slide lets him have it - we'll be hearing this masterpiece in Columbus, Ohio, very soon.... Yum..
I have this Cd. This is my favorite song. The arrangment is beautiful. Makes me cry.
Slide is one of Jazz's many unsung heroes.As an arranger,composer and bone master,he is unparalleled.And still with us,as of 12/5/19.
Rip slide
