Thanks! I hope this is the same sax section as appeared on t.v's "Night Music" around this time. (I know Ken McIntyre was one of them).
Their t.v. performance of the ANC theme was fiery and magnificent, and I'd like to hear more of that line-up. It looks to be mostly the same. I found the studio recording to be a bit reserved.
Can't wait.

For reasons unknown to me, these files appear to be blacklisted on RS, so they have been uploaded to Crocko instead. We'll see how this plays out.

In the meantime:

part2

The music is great, of course, and I am very grateful for all your recordings you have posted on your website. But this recording is marred by the use of noise reduction (the typical underwater effect" is clearly audible in the quieter parts of the recording).
Please don't take my comment as an insult as I really appreciate your efforts!

@Henning: It's a matter of taste what is preferable, I guess. Personally, I like keeping the noise in, as it were, but there might be a point beyond which it becomes distracting. Tape hiss, anyone?
