Arturo was awesome, the first special guest with the new Tonight Show band and he was incredible. I watched him rehearse his own big band the night before, do the rehearsal with the Tonight Show band the next morning, a sound check / rehearsal, then tape the show, straight over to the club and do two shows after that at Vibrato and he got the crowd going big time and was off the charts awesome for all of it, a very fun marathon day of playing! He did a version of Body and Soul that was incredible. Vibrato was sold out, jam packed and it was a great show. If you ever get a chance to see him with his LA big band, go do it, man, that was awesome!
