And here is something that I wrote for Boss back in the day. This was towards the end of my time with the band, probably around 1984(ish) Recorded LIVE from the sound board,
Of course, the theme for the 1982 movie ended up being "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor, but for one brief shining moment, WE were considered for the job. So I wrote this piece up thinking that it might be on the movie itself!
WOO HOO!
D'OH!
It was not to be. But man-oh-MAN it made for a fun chart. Featuring myself on trombone the Wackerman Bros (Bob and John) on bass and drums, the great John Schroeder on the sax solo, Louis Fasman on lead trumpet, and of course My Main Man Mighty Maynard!
Dig if you will:
Love this chart...as I recall this is from Charlottsville, last gig of a 1985 tour. Steve-O's arrangement and performance KILLED IT!!!!
