  1. My good deed for the day (I thought so, anyway): our sports reporter, a kid of about 30, was listening to some decent big band stuff in the office this morning. I talked him into throwing on some Glenn Miller and more precisely this tune. He hadn’t heard of Glenn Miller before our conversation; I shared with him how Maj. Miller died in a plane crash in December of 1944. Next thing I know, the office was jammin Glenn. I think I did OK.

  4. VIDEO – The 8-Bit Big Band *LIVE* Full show NYC – 12/27/25

    This concert came across my YouTube feed this afternoon, so I cranked the volume and had fun jamming to incredible big band arrangements of video game music performed by the Grammy award winning (and 2026 Grammy nominee!) 8-Bit Big Band!

  6. I mean, why not? Metaphorically speaking, of course – air travel accounts for 4 percent of human-induced global warming.

    BIRD LIVES - TRIBUTE TO CHARLIE PARKER

    Big Band hört man ja auch nicht so oft, umso schöner, wenn es ein so exzellentes Ensemble ist wie die SWR Big Band.
    Mit herausragenden Solisten (vor allem die beiden blutjungen Saxophonist:innen #EmmaRawicz und #JakobManz) gab's eine tiiiiefe Verbeugung vor Charlie Parker.

    ... und Siggi Loch wird auch immer jünger...😇
