The bass player looks oddly like Pete Barbutti.

@timweiss1 Actually...it's the pianist's fuck-up!

@MrBubbleNutz actually, it's 2nd trumpet fail. It's written with 2nd playing a high F# and lead playing a G. You can hear the high G in there.

Last note = Lead trumpet FAIL!

I'm accustomed to hear a classic dixieland arrangement for this tune, but the funky part at the beginning sounds really good (I'll try to play it with the fusion band now!). And of course, the great bebop solos!
