Big Bands of Today.

Heard Bob Mintzer at the San Jose Jazz Fest a couple of years ago ... good stuff. Also, though he left us recently, Gerald Wilson was still producing great music right up 'til the end. I'm listening to his "The Mini Waltz" right now. Wynton's Jazz at Lincoln Center orchestra is more of a large ensemble (vs traditional Big Band), but still quite good; and it's usually well recorded.

@Zephyr24069, I wrote that incorrectly as it appears to refer to Mintzer. Gerald Wilson is the one who has passed. My apologies.
