[TPIN] Re: TPIN Maurice at his finest

[Michael Anderson]

I have a little info on this I will post when I get home in a few hours. 

I don't know how you could POSSIBLY like Doc's version more than Wynton's. Doc is/was NOT a picc player. He was sent a P5-4 just for this session. I love Doc to death, but a Baroque fanfare played on picc in a style similar to the end of In The Mood is not something I enjoyed hearing every Sunday morning. :)

I don't like Wynton's ornaments either, but it is certainly more palatable. 

I'll tell the story of why they stopped using DS's version when I get home.

Dave and Mates,
  
 I would be very interested to know the reasons and the process that determined how, why and when to replace the Smithers version and then the Severinson version in favor of the Marsalis version.  Perhaps those with knowledge wouldn't want to say certain things publically.  I can understand that.
