Thank you for sharing.

Sorry – just found a tour schedule which confirms Frankfurt on the 9th following the Geissen concert on the 7th. Presumably 23rd would be a broadcast date for the concert recording, or else a separate recording for broadcast. The full horn sound would appear to support the fuller band-list, though I haven’t noticed a clear sign of Martin Scales on a 2nd guitar, so perhaps the truth is somewhere in between the 2 versions? Or I could just ignore the details and enjoy!

Hi – Do you know any more about this? I found 2 conflicting references – a Frankfurt concert with a bigger line-up on 23 October – & a newspaper report of other tour dates including @ Geissen (Gießen) . (It always amazes me how much extra Jim McNeely seems to bring to hr BigBand arrangements compared to the Monday Night Orchestra recordings.) If only funding still supported international tours by the Deutsches rundfunk line-ups.
Thanks
