Somebody please help me! I do not know where they came from because Tuba Skinny is not from the present. They do not need phony acoustics to enhance their talent which of course is unheard of today. What they are presenting ( a gift to us ) is pure raw talent as it used to be in by gone years.
When I was 14 I was copying a Louis Armstrong solo. I wrote it down in notes and it's nice to listen to you young people. (now I'm 79). In a bar of 1, min 02, your trombonist goes from A-sharp to a-minor so nicely. Thank you and I wish you all the best. DM
Many thanks for filming this, Ray. 'Once in a While' was composed in 1927 by W H Butler . Tuba Skinny play it in the key of C. As you can hear, it has an Introduction and then a 16-bar first theme, and a 32-bar [16 + a similar 16] main theme that uses a simple chord progression. Two-bar breaks are often taken on bars 15 and 16 of the main theme - usually on a signal from Shaye; and also sometimes on bars 31 and 32. In case anyone needs a guide to the engineering of this performance, here's what happens: 00:11 INTRODUCTION - four bars 00:16 THEME ONE - 16 bar melody stated by Shaye 00:35 THEME TWO - 32-bars, Ensemble, without breaks; at 01:15 note Shaye's hand-on-head signal to go back to THEME ONE 01:16 THEME ONE - the 16 bars this time stated by Craig Flory on clarinet 01:36 THEME TWO - Craig Flory continues to solo, with gentle support from Shaye. Craig takes the break on bars 15 and 16 (on a leg signal from Shaye) and allows Craig Klein to take the final two bars (again on a Shaye leg signal) as a transition to the trombone solo 02:16 THEME TWO - Craig Klein solos, and takes the break (on another Shaye leg signal at 02:33). Craig also 'cuts' (with further signals from Shaye) at Bar 31, for Todd to take the final two bars as a break 02:56 THEME TWO - Using her plunger mute, Shaye improvises over the 32 bars, the others playing an interesting well-rehearsed pattern of stop chords, Shaye taking the breaks at bars 15, 16 (03:14), and 31, 32 (03:35) 03:38 THEME TWO - Ensemble, with Robin (on the leg signal) taking the break on bars 15 and 16 and Shaye giving the leg signal at 04:16, telling them to finish. 04:20 CODA - two bars to round it off. Note the slick rhythmic pattern behind the melody. (There is coincidentally a QUITE different song called 'Once in a While' , composed in 1937 by Edwards and Green. It is a lovely ballad of 32 bars - a-a-b-a in structure, usually played at about half the speed of the Butler composition.)
Thank you for another wonderful video from this set. You did a great job filming Tuba Skinny playing this day. Thank you for sharing it with all of us Tuba Skinny Fans all over the world.
I’ve seen Craig Klein mostly with the NO Jazz Vipers. Charlie Halloran often stands in and I’ve seen James Evans from The Shotgun jazz band on one occasion on trombone. I wonder how Haruka Kikuchi would fit in?
There is another song called once in awhile Louis Armstrong often did. they ought to learn it and have Erika Lewis sing it, it;s just her style. ruclips.net/video/H-FeiWdVhQo/видео.html
I close my eyes during a Shaye solo and think I'm back in 1920 hearing the great Louis Armstrong.

The other one .. ruclips.net/video/v3HsP9ueQ-0/видео.html ... (Bing Crosby)
Exactement, Lionel. AND he sang the Verse as well as the 32-bar Chorus.
Even as a non musician, I greatly appreciate the play by play here
Thanks for the kind words, Alan, making my effort seem worthwhile.

Makes me feel good.
Another great video of that incomparable band. I think that they are even better than they were 10-12 years ago. I do miss Jon Doyle on sax.
I miss Jon as well (Craig is terrific of course), especially on tenor.
Hellow TS and Ray, thank you so much for the melodious 🎶
Great song. Thanks TS and Ray.

All their videos are my favourites😃👌
Love Shaye
Barna! Come back, please.....
I love shaye.
Wonderful! A bit windy there.
Craig looking good!!
Music is more complicated than rocket surgery.
‘Nother day at the salt mine.
Cone on, guys. You called this one in.
But....but....but....
where is Barnabus?
Who's sitting in for Barnabus on the T-Bone?
Craig Klein of the New Orleans Nightcrawlers

lt wouldnt be you tube with out them!
Let's rename it YouTuba Skinny😁😊🤗
Hi! Where is Barnabus??????????????
Hat Barnabus die Band verlassen??? Wo ist er, ich vermisse ihn.
Did Barnabus leave the band ??? Where is he, I miss him.
Calm down guys.
He took a few days off. He’s back now!
@@rayhanson3565 people get so paranoid, Ray. How many years have those friends been together?
@@stewartfenton7660several of them since around 2004 I believe. Tuba Skinny Was formed around 2010.
@@stewartfenton7660 There’s a good history of the band on Wikipedia
Il me semble qu'on ne voit plus Jason ??
Je pense qu'ils reviendront. Shaye a de jolies gambettes !

Where's Erika?
That’s what a trombone should sound like. Barnabus needs a little trip to the woodshed as he has the notes but not the tone.
