Great info...the corrections have been made. Thanks everyone! I was there in '81 too. I wonder what happened to all the slides and negatives I had. In those days, I carried a camera everywhere I went.

Here's the rest: Trumpets - Joe Rodriguez, Time Burke, Kit Reid, Bill Byrne Saxes - Dick Mitchell (you are right with Gary Smulyan) Bass - Dave Larocca Drums - Ed Soph All this talk made me remember that I forgot to slip in a slide of another Woody Herman appearance in 1985. I just updated the site, so you might want to check that picture out too.

Hmmm....Clint Houston is listed as the quintet's bassist in the festival program. Was there a last minute personnel change for this date?

According to my jazz festival program (I kept that all these years too), Birch Johnson, Nelson Hinds and Larry Shunk were on trombones that evening. Didn't mean to "spam 'n run" (I think that was directed at me); I wanted to post the gallery link before heading to my Tai Chi class.
