Bell Baxter Wind Band 1990
Ron Muir found this old BBC recording and converted it to make it compatible with YouTube. He then posted the video on facebook fro the Bell Baxter community to see. We commend it to you, but warn you to make a coffee and get comfortable before sitting down to watch and listen. The entire recording is just short of 20 minutes, but well worth it.
