"The Cookers" playing at the 28th annual JazzTerrassa Festival in Terrassa (Barcelona) Spain on Saturday, March 14, 2009. The Cookers are a Hard Bop group composed on this tour of Billy Harper (tenor), David Weiss (trumpet), Eddie Henderson (trumpet), Craig Handy (alto), George Cables (piano), Cecil McBee (bass), and E.J. Strickland (drums). The name of the tune is "Man of Peace", a Cecil McBee composition. Please excuse the poor video and sound quality of the clip, I shot it with my cell phone and clearly the sound is muddy, but that is all I had available. This is the continuation of the tune, previously uploaded as Pt. 1. The phone only allowed for a fixed length of video and cut the tune off after 8 minutes and I was able to get this little bit more before I ran out of memory. I'll upload the first tune they played as soon as I can.

Please see my notes about the group members on Part 1 which is well worth listening to.
