i would have to whole-heartedly disagree with you. the prize fight WAS one of the greatest band with or without horns.
for your information, the band had been struggling for years with keeping the horns in the band, but after the change from the spanish word for danger to the prize fight things just got too complicated. and the lead singer, johnny hunter, is actually a skilled baritone player and used to play the second horn parts; however when the lead t-bone dave left johnny was not able to cover all the parts.
hopefully that clarifies things and i am sorry that it took me so long to realize someone had posted about the horn situation.
