Greetings All, it's great to have things working again, thank you to all
concerned.

Could anyone here help identify the tune that starts a 1 min. 30 seconds of
this documentary please?

I'm surprised that such a beautiful theme seems so obscure.

Thanks go to Dave for sorting out the list for us!  I first noticed a
problem on 5 March when I a post sent to djml (that I have attached below)
didn't pop up in my own inbox as it should.  I looked at the djml archives &
saw it was there, though.  Then, over the next few days there were no other
posts from djml, nor were there any in the archives.  That's when I alerted
Bob Ringwald asking if there was a problem.
 
Our list may not be as active as it was a few years ago, but then we often
had some contentious arguments going on then that added to the quantity but
not the quality of the posts on the list. It's a great list, and many thanks
to those that keep it running for us!
 
I have noticed that my djml posts no longer go into my djml box, but remain
in my general inbox.  That must be due to whatever was done at HQ!  I will
make a new ruling for that.  Also, I noticed we had a few posts come through
in HTML, not plain text.  Is that something new for the list?
 
Anyway, for those that didn't have a look at a recent video of our band here
in Madrid last week, the link is below.  I love it mainly because of the
interreaction between the pianist & trumpeter, which is all about playing
Jazz.  It gets a tad bit modern, but that's ok, too.  We can still honk in
the classic style, also.
 
Jim

Subject: company gig

Since 2008 are gigs for company functions has taken a big drop, but
fortunately they are slowly coming back.  A few months ago Ernst & Young
took us up to Barcelona for a company gig, and last night we played for an
Orthodontist Convention in Madrid.  
 
Have a look at a video I shot while the band was playing a rather modern
version of "Caravan".  The trumpeter is a young Russian who often
substitutes for our regular trumpeter.  Here he has a bit of a "talk" with
the pianist at the end of his solo which (you can see in the video) he
enjoyed greatly.  It's really fun when those sort of moments happen in a
band.
 
I was taking the video, so all you can see of me is my horn on the stand &
mutes on the floor!  We're dressed in our "function" clothes, which I guess
in the U.S. would be frowned on as being corny.  In Spain, we always get
compliments about the colorful vests (which were a gift from J & B Whiskey),
as there are no misunderstood undercurrents here about such
dress....fortunately.
