Outstanding musicians and musicianship. They are some of the finest in the business for sure. Every time I hear any of them play I stop what I am doing and listen!!

What a terrific version of "An Actors Life". Tom Scott plays the sax just like Ernie Watts in the original. Its funny when they showed the crowds and Japanese Bullet Train when the song began because Gruisin captured the feel of New York City in the early eighties when he composed this tune for the movie Tootsie. Some people don't like this song because they don't really see it as jazz but more of a movie tune like Mountain Dance but to me this very much jazz.

Charlie "Bird" Parker second to Tom Scott?!?!?!...i think you need to re-evaluate and do some sax research...and if we are comparing new school guys how do you leave out players such as David Sanborn and Gerald Albright?
