Swinging Herd '69

on BBC Two England

Woody Herman and his Orchestra playing the sounds of today
Woody Herman, one of the few remaining giants of Big Band jazz, departs from his familiar sounds this year with a band built around the brilliant arrangements of Richard Evans, a young musician formerly involved in pop music. Woody and Richard have worked together on an entirely new concept in big band writing which points the way to a marriage of the worlds of pop and big band music.
