Actually, this is an all Australian band recorded at The Basement in Sydney. The Sax player's name is Blaine Whittaker. I know that because he is a friend of mine (I'm a trumpet player too). The rest of the band is David Jones on drums, Phil Stack on Bass and James Muller on guitar. Hope that clears it up
What a grate band, James is amazing as always and how about the Sax player, wow. I don't rally feel the drummer, but that's just a matter of what one likes.
So, Just to give credit where credit's due...the great woodwind man Jerome Richardson wrote this tune years ago and Thad Jones arranged it for the Thad Jones-Mel Lewis Jazz Orchestra.
Just australian??? the whole world should hear of his jaw droppin skills. I found a really good website where you could download his sheet music that hes arranged. sum of it luks so hard. no wait all of it does. I lost the link tho sorry

the sax players name is Jim Brewer. He did a few years on SNL before joining this band.

O.k. that fat, bald trumpet player is good,but who is that sax player. He plays his ass off and he's even handsomer than me.

I was merely making the point of James M's quite astounding trumpet talent. I stand by that statement
