Some of the jazz musicians today have not lost the big band flavor that infused some of the jazz of the mid 1900s. These cool hits not only contain soul-capturing vocals but also pack a punch with a passionate and loud band. These groups of musicians are certainly not part of the background, if anything, they are the leading act with a vocalist to add some pizazz.
Some examples of this can be seen in Bing Crosby's "Now you Has Jazz Jazz Jazz" which you can listen to here
.
There are many different instruments in these bands, each with unique and capturing characteristics. To learn about one of my favorite instruments and one of my favorite people, visit Christian Power's awe-inspiring blog about saxophones via the following address: http://sax-it-to-me.blogspot.com/
