If you think you need earplugs with Maynard, go see a live performance from "Here Come The Mummies!" You can see them on KZfaq, the Bob N Tom show.

Trust me. He was a mere mortal. I know because I was in the same room with him at one of the clinics he would offer for free when he was in town. He spoke to ME. Listened to ME. Maynard oh my Lord Ferguson. The most inspirational afternoon of my life. Yes...there will never be anyone like him. Thanks for posting.

I don't think it's all that good actually. Sure, high notes and very technical but a good tone? No. Musical? No, not really. Give me Bix any day.
@gayforg14 күн бұрын
@@Gennettor-nc8kxi think his tone is quite fitting tbh. sure he’s overblowing but he’s doing so on purpose as part of the loud in your face style theyre going for. you also dont give those high notes enough credit, incredible tone for how high they are. although i totally agree with you on rocky: he could have been far more stylistic and light and obviously not so showy with his range. i guess my point is that hes a pretty good trumpet player

What is there not to love of this legendary trumpet virtuoso ? Though in later years of his long career he was still trying to top that one last note he never failed to deliver the big band sound for us to enjoy in awh and wonder how does one human hit those high screeching notes ? Blessed talent years of practice and rehearsal , finding the best pic-up band members dedicate to the art of music and their instrument of choice .

I like how they did that double time groove with the piano solo. Appropriate for his later years and a nice adaption of the more rock version of the '70's. Piano player started to hint at wanting to put some substitute chords to take it somewhere else but kept it safe. I would have had somebody re-write the entire arrangement with this feel and some cooler harmonics but his fans wanted to hear the ole Rocky.

Hi, I bought the Seattle DVD and had trouble watching it more than once, due to the end of Rocky. I'm sure there were many high school auditoriums all over Flyoverland where MF nailed the last note, then he misses it here. If I had only known what was coming with KZfaq, I would not have spent money on the DVDs, "At the Top" and Seattle. MF is playing Rocky as I'm typing this and I put it on mute, sorry sorry. But I always loved MF.
