Nailed the last note matey I closed my eyes and listened and thought of the late great Derek you’re so much a like but with your own sound awesome stuff !
This is one of my most favourite tunes of all times, played by the Master of the Trumpet. Absolutely amazing selection of players. Thank you. My goosebumps have got goosebumps.
Beautiful balance amongst the ensemble and a playing seating arrangement that works really well. Love how Mike adds colour to every section of melody he plays.
I want you to know I thought your solo performance of the shadow of your smile was the best I have ever heard! It’s such a shame BBC Studios copyrighted from your list! I listened to it often. Now I can’t find the performance anywhere. Can you tell me what was the orchestra you were playing with so I can try that avenue? Brilliant performance just brilliant!!!!
@@omnigirl987 thank you for your generous words. The orchestra on the tv show was The John Wilson Orchestra. There is an audio recording of me playing it with the sinfonia of London but that doesn’t have the same vibe as the live one taken down from you tube.
@@mikelovattsbrasspack thank you so much. I sure miss watching you perform that. What a shame more folks won’t get to see that. At least I know more now than I did! Thanks for responding. You’re a talented man!!!!
Awesome performance Mike, and great playing by the students. We can't wait to start seeing your live performances again wherever they may be. ps. There are always people that give a thumbs down just for the sheer hell of it,
Mike's smile at the end - "nailed it!!"
Woooow, fantastic !!!!!

Really good powerhouse delivery from Mike. Great James Last arrangement originally played by the late Derek Watkins
That’s pretty epic , Mike Lovett showing everyone ( as always ) what a player he is.
Magnificent ... a marvellous collection of talent being led and encouraged by the Best..

That got me going! Great stuff Mike. That last note - don't think I realised a trumpet could get up there!

Superb!
Jees. The Best of Maynard Fergusson.
Keep watching it. Hollywood was the other record. Brilliant.
Reminds me a bit of Derek's version. Love it Mr. Lovatt.
Fantastic!
Reminiscent of the Woody Herman version.
Peter Gohering what super babble 😅
I’d love to know who is the person who gave this a thumbs down and why ?
String player...
There are always haters, right? It's always people who can't play who around giving thumbs down. So lame.
Awesome performance Mike, and great playing by the students. We can't wait to start seeing your live performances again wherever they may be.
ps. There are always people that give a thumbs down just for the sheer hell of it,
Someone hard of hearing.
Absolutely super but I cannot watch it, only listen. The visual image is too early.
HEY ! Now it is synched !! Maybe it was my machine. Thanks, whomever !!!! Now watching gives me chills. This destined to be a classic watch.
So happy memories of Hansi and of course Derek Watkins, and not forgetting Grimethorpe..( who is this guy Jimmy Webb?!!!!)
I think the video is there to show the marvellous playing skills of the superb young students and has a teaching aid DAH
Whoever gave it a neg response must have their lugs painted on !
