When America was still America. We were number 1 in everything. We weren't worried about appeasing other people.
Espetacular 👍👏👏
Něco úžasnéno.Something Wonderful
Fantastic! Thanks for posting!
Great!!!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙃😄👍🏻
Muy bonito esa música
Don't know who Tony Page is, but he is a sad case - still pissed off at a man who is over 90 years old, and he saw him in 1970! Believe me: Ray is fun to work with, which is why he has had such a great LA band for many years.
Realy!? Wonderful!
P.S.
You must admire him, after all... why would you be typing in the name Ray Anthony and checking out his success.
Yes, that IS Rick Baptist. You must realize that freelance musicians work with more than one employer. Don Clarke on solo trpt., along with Ray. Tom Ranier on piano, Kirk Smith on bass, Bob Leatherbarrow on drums. You can see Alan Kaplan, Bill Tole, Dave Ryan on trombones.

Tony, I must say, If you played with Ray Anthony, you certainly must have talent, because he hired the very best. Just a shame your talent didn't make the fame and money he did.
Oinkee, have never said that I worked WITH him. Just appreared on the same "bill" with him at the Frontier Hote, LV, 1970.
@@Tony7840 ....were you the bus boy.
I'm actually speechless.

maybe not. holy moly!
Beautiful big band . It seems they are play in a boat!
At least, he had the sense to utilize 2 Tenors, Altos and a Baritone sax. All that he has ever done with his bands was, just stand there with his trumpet. and play a few licks. By the way, we performed together at the Frontier Hotel, Las Vegas, NV, 1970.
Wow - some hate there. You still hate this guy after 40 years?!! Damn. Get over it. He gave to a paycheck.
Tony, if you've listened to Anthony's recordings from even 10 years ago, or further back 60+ years ago, he did a lot more than "a few licks on trumpet", he was THE PRIMARY SOLOIST on his records. I listened to Ray Anthony 78's when I was in my early teens (early 1970's). What a beautiful orchestra, plus Anthony solos were wonderful with the rich tone and power of Harry James. I think all you know about Ray Anthony is what you see in this Video.
john smith Anthony NEVER gave me a paycheck. It was Frank Sennes (Entertainment Director) and Howard Hughes. The same that signed Anthony's paychecks.
jeff Craven Going back to 1970.
You are entitled to an opinion. And you're also entitled to make worse-than-silly jerk-off statements. You're plain wrong. ADDENDUM : When's the last time YOU organized a First Rate Band ? Excuse me ? Can't hear you.

Great musicians sound great. I wonder what the real reason was for Glenn Miller firing Ray Anthony?
he was like 20 right? probably too unfocused for Millers taste.
Greeeeeaaat .gracias ray anthony por tí shors hago mis presentaciones jazz en las plazas de cochabamba bolivia y ahora los viernes en "café Creatio" de18:00 a 22:00 sin parar.7171683 cel.bolivia gracias a Dios tu me inspiraste a tocar tp. Con tu disco sahara night club..graaaaacias
Just watching this video should give you an idea as to what my previous "post" was about.
I observe he is doing nothing but miming .
weiss eric Thank you.......My point exactly. That's ALL that he EVER DID!!!!!
It is Rick Baptist, he is very good friends with Ray!
Is that Rick Baptist?
No, Not Rick Baptist!!! Rick was, and still is magnificent. The latest is that he is still the first trumpeter on "Dancing With The Stars."
Tony Page In the section - 2nd trumpet from left. Sure looks like Rick Baptist.
trumpetvids This was Ray's Birthday and all these fine musicians, donated their time to play in the band for him that day. Ray is now 93 years young. He still plays his horn and also plays tennis as well. Ray has a website, rayanthonyband.com to see all that he still does . Recently someone has made a video of him and Maryiln Monroe, you can see it at marilynandi.com I think it's great. I'm sure this will give Tony no sleep from jealousy.
trumpetvids And yes it is Rick Baptist.
If you look closely, you'll notice that the musicians have no idea as to what the GREAT RAY ANTHONY, is doing.
Tony, anyone familiar with Ray Anthony's musicianship and recordings know you're full of it. If you hate Ray this much, you must have done something to really T him off at you. What did ya do? Show up for practice or a gig late, or too drunk to play, or were you pissed because he tried to give you some positive criticism about your playing? What's the real problem? Plus in an earlier post of yours you used the F word: makes you sound like trash.
jeff Craven Stand by my claim of his Narcissism, self-centeredness, etc. Witnessed it first-hand. Jeff, look up Warren Luening on Google and CZcams. He was my conductor and arranger, when I appeared with Anthony. Warren, far exceeded Anthony's musicianship as a trumpeter. He forced me to not let Warren do a solo in my show. Frankly, the day of rehearsals in LV, when I said "hello" to him, he just scoffed and looked over my shoulder without any reciprocation. Was not asking him to "bow down," or ANYTHING else. Just say; "hi" back.
jeff Craven Forgot to mention that, ironically, Anthony hired Warren Luening for one of his CD sessions. ROFLOL at YOU!!!
Cause, they were professional. Ray let them entertain. Fool!!
@@Tony7840 For swing fans all that matters is what we hear- and may see- so all this "insider gossip "is pointless, Mr Page. I don't care if you and Ray don't see eye to eye. I'd never heard of you before but Ray 's music has lived for decades and is still enjoyed by many. My advice to you is to let it go and learn how to get along with who ever gives you opportunity. If it doesn't feel right- get out politely and move on!
