Straight nightclub jazz with a very conservative sound. What makes it interesting is Cafiso, a 16-year-old Italian wunderkind on sax, who really burns it up in his solos. There's a casual confidence (maybe even arrogance) to his playing that's kind of appealing; he's got talent and presence.

1- Fast fast jog; first 2 minutes are jam packed
2- Soft and a bit sappy
3- Swingy '50s feel, kicks into fast soloing
4- Delicate, cheesy start. Builds into a fast adventurous run
5- Slow, sultry blues. Opens with bass solo.
6- Fast, with show-off soloing (pretty cool, actually)
7- Sentimental
8- Playful; gently bouncy
