     I think Turk said it was Bob Nabors.  The credits and members of  
the band are on the crawl at the end of the third segment.
     I just had to haul out my tuba and play along with the videos.   
I'm just an unreconstructed Turk Murphy tuba-player, i guess.
     Come to think of it, Turk said that he and Bob Helm had (by 1962)  
written about 45 or 50 songs for the band.  I know a lot of Turk's  
songs, but i almost never hear many of Helm's.  Where are they?  For  
that matter, where are Turk's?  Does the SFTJF have them, or access to  
them?
     A listing of all the songs that Lu Watters, Turk, and Bob wrote  
(and also recorded) would be a wonderful addition to jazz history.   
Any chance of somebody somewhere putting such lists together?

Couldn't make out the trumpet man's name though - do you know it?

     If you don't want to spring for a DVD, just go view the video on
YouTuba (oops, i mean YouTube), where it's in 3 parts, each part about
9-10 minutes:
