I totally love this song to the max. I shat when I heard it and hounded a very annoying radio presenter over and over to answer the phone and tell me what it was I was listening too. Carla Bley is Amazing...
This is so true that classical musicians (with few exceptions) can't swing. Watch Boots Randolph's live version of Yakety Sax, and then look for the version played by Andre Rieu & Jso. She's playing all the notes, but she just isn't swinging-there's no groove or soul.
R.I.P. Carla Bley. 😢

Excellent!
That looks like Adam Nussbam(sp) on drums.

Yeah.. they can't do much outside of what the sheet music tells them to play.

This was such a turning point for my playing. What an experience !
You gotta know how to swing
