Mainstream modern bop, a quintet fronted by two sax players. Bright overall, but it's got a "sweet" sound that gets a bit cheesy in spots (2, 5, 8), expecially when Christensen brings out the soprano sax. Lots of hand drums (vs. regular drum kit), for a bit of a different sound.
1- Happy
2- Slow, slinky
3- Midtempo
4- Chaotic, short
5- Nostalgic, like the title says
6*- Mid/fast minor key
8- Loungy
9- Up/midtempo but mellow feel
10- Upbeat, after overlapping spoken intro
11*- Slow/mid, Klezmer scales, good sax solo
12- African feel; happy and mellow
