Rob McConnell & The Boss Brass - The Waltz I Blew for You download song

Also one of my favorite tunes...along with Start with Mrs. Beanhart! Bitching hard charts to play, but worth every bit of the effort. Thanks so much for posting this! Lou Spagnola

Fabulous to hear them again!!! Eugene Amaro's flute solo was soooo good!! Tight horns!! Mmmm just what a girl loves to hear.

This is one of my favorite tunes

Great to see Sam Noto again. I have the Two Originals CD; great stuff. I love this band forever. They played three nights in Toronto just before Christmas 2008. Sold out months in advance! A great reunion.

this chart is sooooo hard to play, but SO amazing. love rob mcconnell.

I played drums for him in 1984 in Spokance Washington. Very demanding dude, got chewed out once for not getting kick just right on his phrasing. We even did this arrangement.

WOW - a wonderful tune, it's played fantastic!

best freakin jazz flute i ever heard - his sound is so clear.. .wow. told you you didn't need to vibrato on every note, john...

LONGEST SHOUT SECTION IVE EVER HEARD. Holy its crazy.

Love it. Grew up near Hamilton. Trying for the life of me to figure out the intro conducting. Thank goodness he counted.

Terry Clarke on drums. *DO NOT* ask him if he ever played with Clark Terry!

I grew up listening - and loving - Basie, Ellington, Herman, Kenton et al and never thought it could get better ....... and then along come the fabulous Boss Brass. Wow ! Wow! Wow!

Looks like Ron Hughes on "bass" trombone although it looks like he's playing on a Conn 88H symphonic tenor istead of an actual bass trombone. I wonder if that is the same horn he used on the albums.

This album (Present Perfect) was one of my first introductions to jazz about 27 years ago in high school by my then trumpet teacher. I still love this tune. He introduced me to a weird hodgepodge of jazz: Hot Fives & Sevens, Rob McConnell, Miles Davis, & Lee Morgan.

There are many Boss Brass' CD's. Look in Amazon USA and UK and also on ebay. They show up all the time. The cd where this tune is,"PRESENT PERFECT" is now on amazon used for under U$S 30.00. It is also on ebay right now, for $ 5,99 item nr. 4828559868 . Regards.

Unusual to see the snare drum angle that Terry Clark uses on his kit ( tilted way to the back ), especially for someone playing with traditional grip. Seems like it would be hard to do rim shots that way. Love the way he plays however.
