"Strike Up the Band", "Champions", and "Basin Street" are all from the early to mid-80's, so Chuck was playing the Yamaha 621 on those (which he's since gone back to).

On "Ain't Misbehavin'" (which was originally issued as "Mostly Fats") he played the Schilke 5-valve rotary, which was basically the equivalent of a Yamaha 661.

I'm pretty sure he played the Getzen on all the rest that are listed there, but I'm not sure about "Ragtime".

The cover on the Red Hot Jazz album looks to reveal an 822.

During what time period did he use the 822?

To my knowledge, Chuck never used the 822. He played something with an 822 F body and 822 CC valveset for a while that never went into regular production, at first with a conventional bell, later with carbon. It was something called a 623X (or something like that). I think he played that up until last year.

Since I see Fred in the picture, and since it's not a Yamaha 621, I think that places it during the time when they were with Getzen.

I remember him playing that horn with the carbon bell at the last concert I went to, which was maybe 6 years ago. It had a big YAMAHA on the bell in white letters.
