Re: Pete Fountain's "skyrocket of notes"

a wee reminder to nobody in particular that youtube has 1/2 and 1/4 speed playback options behind the gearwheel button. I hear only 2 or 3 notes between the low B and the high E, hard to say whether Pete is thinking G major pentatonic/ hexatonic, or E major pentatonic / arpeggio. He often used a similar super-fast flurry of notes lower down the instrument, too, I could find an example, i’m sure.

as I understand it, many of Pete’s famous recordings were made before the Dynamic H was launched in around 1965. -A-
