RIP Bob Flanigan
From the moment I heard the Four Freshmen and Five Trombones playing Day By Day I was hooked. The harmonies were so cool and just perfect for those heady days of Kenton and Christy and Mulligan and Shelly.
Bob Flanigan played bass and trombone and sang the top-line admitting they were just beyond his range - maybe - they still sound good to me.
This is an interview that adds an insight into the group, and Bob, who died today.
Lance.
