Here?s a live concert I played in 1985 which was televised by Spanish<br>
national television (TVE) & is now on YouTube. I may have put it on DJML at<br>
an earlier date, but if any of you are like I am, there is little music<br>
going on at the moment, so might as well have a listen! :><br>

This is a big band made up of those of us that did most of the recording<br>
studio session work for many years in Madrid. Strangely enough, I was the<br>
only foreigner in that gang for about 25 yrs! Some really, really great<br>
sight readers amongst those guys, who were mostly older than me. I?m the<br>
younger, bearded trombonist that pops into view from time to time. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The first song is a Flamenco Jazz arrangement by the leader of this band,<br>
Pedro Iturralde (sax & clarinet). Pedro is still a great friend. We then<br>
go on to a Glenn Miller Medley, followed by another of Pedro?s flamenco<br>
arrangements. We had a quick rehearsal just before the concert/tv show for<br>
all those new arrangements. Keeps you hopping, trying to keep up with all<br>
those sheets of paper!<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The credits at the end give everyone from the tv production, but not one<br>
musician?s name. Typical!<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Although most of Spain?s limitations have been lifted, we must still wear<br>
masks when out (big money fine if not!), and there is a limit on people in<br>
each store, etc. No clubs whatsoever are open for live music. Are first<br>
gigs are booked, hopefully, in the month of September. Have to wait & see.<br>
Anyway, everyone in my family, and everyone we know is fine.<br><br>
