Big Noise from Winnetka - Bob Haggart 1986
As bassist of the Bob Crosby Bob Cats, Bob Haggart (1914-1998) composed and arranged many tunes for the band and the most famous one is probably “The Big Noise”. Bob recorded this tune for the first time in 1938 as a feature for bass, drums and whistling together with drummer Ray Bauduc. Now some 48 years later Bob is still playing the tune in almost all of his performances.
We see and hear him here at the 1986 Irish Cork Jazz Festival together with drummer Nick Fatool.
