Hey Frank:
Yep. I confess. Major, MAJOR nerd. (speaking purely for myself, of course.) But, God help me, it's one of the first things I look at in movie sequences involving instruments being played. ("Is that a Mark VI?? Wait, that's not right! They didn't have those until...") I take my hat off to Scorsese in The Aviator for hiring Vince Giordano's entire band to provide the onscreen visuals, and the horns looked right for the period, as near as I could tell. (The band was featured mostly in distance shots, as I remember.)
Oh, enough. I'll go lie down now.
