The original Village Vanguard Orchestra album that this chart is recorded in is one of my favorite modern jazz recordings. Awesome stuff.

But here's a good argument for not restricting a great chart to just one great recording. The Frankfurt Radio Big Band here sounds different and also great!

Christian Jaksjö on the plunger 'bone solo.
Steffen Weber, tenor sax.

Jim McNeely, who arranged this, just passed away last year. He was a brilliant composer and arranger, fabulous pianist and a great human being. RIP!
