Apologies for the (slightly) distorted audio. The only practical location for my iPhone was next to one of the house speakers.
I'll be uploading more soon--including Bill Holman, Mike Barone, Gordon Goodwin, Carl Saunders, Scott Whitfield, Tom Kubis, Bob Florence, Rob McConnell, Bernie Dresel, Chris Walden. These things take time . . . :) - Hudba
Rest In Peace dear friend.
R.I.P. Johnny Mandel..
Very good musicians
Such a delight to hear these treasured tunes and themes from this amazing composer. The band is wonderful, and I thank Mike Kaiser for making it possible for us to watch this online!
Bravo Carl Saunders, Jack would be proud
WOW- Emily gave me a lump in my throat---just like the movie did back in the 1960s..
Fantastic tunes, when I was a sax player back in the day did a lot of Johnny's music always small band but
of course I love Gerry Mulligans work I guess that's how i came too it. Really enjoyed this thanks for posting best regards from the UK
Sheer Heaven!
Love the music. Would have loved to have thanked you Mr. Mandel.
RIP
I have scrolled down and now know the names of the excellent band members- I will be following some of those new to me for further inspiring performances. At Mike’s suggestion I have attempted a track list: difficult as not all of the tunes were introduced-sometimes the composer was a bit vague so some of the band hummed him a bit to remind him, but I couldn’t always hear a tine title. I f anyone can help fill in the missing titles on #’s 1,2, 11 and 18, my list could be completed:
1.Opening blues?? With coda 1:23
2. tenor ballad?? 9:05
1. Opening blues?? + Coda 1:23
2. Tenor ballad?? 9:05
3. Not Really the Blues 13:50
4. Emily 17:50
5. Black Nightgown 23:30
6. The Shadow of Your Smile 27:48
7. Theme from MASH 35:12
8.Theme from ‘I Want To Live’ 39:41
Band introductions
9. ? EMC? Blues 47:48
10. The Easter parade (blues) 55:58
11.Crazy Cat 101:15
12. Eastgate ? 105:32
13 Cinnamon and Cloves 111:15
14. ballad ?? 116:30
15. The Frisco Club 120:53
Anyone who knows the titles of the 1st, 2nd, 9th and 14th tracks, kindly append!

I have attached a list of titles with corrections
1. Low Life
2 Close Enough for Love (easy one that got that in 2 bars)
9. TNT
10. Keester Parade not Easter Parade
12. Seascape not Eastgate (Bill Evans is renowned for a piano solo on this number)
14. Where Do You Start
Hope that helps
BTW, thanks so much for posting this. When was it recorded?
Oops, found the details online, great to see Johnny having such a ball at 93!
How about a list of the tunes AND the band personell?
Hey, I have an idea. I guess you didn't scroll down to see the personnel list. As for the list of tunes, how about if you watch the video, make note of the (announced) tunes, and then post an answer to this question. That would benefit everybody. Thanks for the comment.
As per Mr. Mandel's request, you were asked by Mandel's mgr. to stop i-l-l-e-g-a-l-l-y recording and you agreed to do so, you continued and then posted the entire concert.
I have received no such request. If I do, I will honor it. Who are you?
This is a once in a lifetime treasure to see. Nothing to be gained by hiding it,
Name the composition s
At far right: plays Baritone Sax; Bass Clarinet; and Bb Clarinet (assume it's not an "A" Clarinet. ...?)
Always Bb clarinet in a big band setting.
