UNT One O'Clock Lab Band



UNT One O'Clock Lab Band:
Jimmy Smith 
Portuguese Soul
Directed by Jay Saunders

Back a long, long time ago, in a land far, far away, (Texas) I went to college at North Texas State University. Back then there were 4 lab bands. Today there are something like 130. Jazz ain’t dying you all.There is an old song that says that Alexander has the best band in the land. Well they never heard the one o’clock band from UNT. It was, even back in the 4 band days and continues today to be The Best Band In The Land.
Recorded live November 25, 2014
Winspear Hall, College of Music
