The swingin'est Cannonball

Jazz Alley

From Louis Armstrong to Charlie Parker to the new greats of today, this is the place for Jazz!

This was an incredible sextet and a great tune - Jessica's Day. They take the tune quite a bit up tempo from the Quincy and Basie versions.
Dig the young Zawinul in the rhythm section.
Live version in Switzerland

Jessica's Day. (Open in New Window)
