Great band! This arrangement starts with a trombone section feature.

Very nice. I was worried at the beginning tempo whether this would be yet another typical trombone section wipeout. But these guys play on top of the beat in both section and solo. A great example to every east coast band I have heard, except for the mil bands that typically keep good time. Nice section sound, appropriate size horns. Worth emulating. I don't think that's Scott Whitfield on lead, but...

Yeah, Scott's something else.

Also to note: it looks suspiciously like Eric Miyashiro on lead trumpet. This band obviously filled with heavy hitters.
