Hi Ray, usually I participate in the whole process. I don't ever post it unless it sounds decent to me. Not to say there's no room for improvements, but I think that happens the the best of us.
Thanks for listening.

Lionel Hampton meets Miles, Mingus, and Count Bassie! Whats not to like!

Outstanding jazz blues. You are a master at arranging RTs to form the perfect bands.

Loved it!

Mike, I merely wanted to know where to start...from an informed position. The almost blues of the melody makes the title really appropriate.
Solid arrangement.

Well Mike, it sure seems you've got the hang of this.

Great arrangement, great choice of instruments, great vibe throughout (in more ways than one wink )

Cool, smooth, classy.
