On the 2 occasions #BBC4 repeated this #bigbandmusic concert, Burton Lane's tune from the movie Royal Wedding, "Sunday Jumps", was cut out (at 1h05m). But thanks to #Geordie #JohnWilsonConductor 's number-one #Scarborough -based fan, here's my bonny lad conducting the #JohnWilsonOrchestra in Skip Martin's arrangement. The link on the poster is for the 1h23m show on BBC4. Here's the link for the audio download: https://bit.ly/jwoxmas2010.
