Hot and sexy featuring Mustafa lighting the match with his trumpet. Tight arrangements, wild energy, nice blend of brass, percussion and keys. A big band sound with great flair and wonderful style. I like it all. 1. Wickedly fast straight from the gate. Wild solos. 2. Warm and swaying midtempo jam w/shining work from all. 3. Big and brassy with a hint of the cha cha cha and lyrical style. 4. Nicely complex layers in this mid/upbeat tune w/urban polish. 5. A late night slow dance, very quiet at times. Reflective and still. 6. Upbeat high style, tight playing, complex arrangement. 7. Downtemp, gets upbeat later. A crazy, twisting jam. 8. Mid/upbeat, great sax solos, nicely unpredictable. 9. Tight mid/upbeat groove w/a hot Latin bop. So cool. | ||
