Dick Cully Big Band - Strike Up The Band



Uploaded by: drumminman49
Video Description:
Sammy Nestico's arrangement of George Gershwin's classic American tune written for Count Basie performed by the Dick Cully Big Band featuring Joe Trunzo on tenor sax on the South Florida TV Show "Something On Seventeen" in the studios of WLRN-TV Miami, Florida. Read what Sammy Nestico has to say:
Dick: I am flabbergasted, thanks ever so much, I am impressed and deeply grateful. Your band is fantastic. I've heard so many renditions of my music that I was disappointed in. I worked shortly with Gene Krupa, and I wrote a couple of things for Buddy Rich ... making it another thing we have in c
ommon. What a treat to hear (and see) your band play my music. I wish to profusely thank you for the many you-tube numbers that you have sent to me. They were fun listening to, but by far the best were from your band. I can't thank you enough. Good luck with all your music and endeavors. Sammy
Nestico

Hi, I'm more then happy to try to help. As a drum student I had the good fortune to study with Ed Shaughnessy, the Tonight Show drummer with Doc Severinsen. When discussing difficult phrases he suggested three things to me.
1. Analyze 2. Memorize 3. Recognize. Of course your greatest asset is your ears. I would listen to troubling phrases repeatedly until they were embedded in my mind. Once they're in there.... there in there. Sammy is a great arranger and this is a fun chart. Good Luck !!!
