If you’d told me in 1977 that I would like a song like this, I'd have laughed in your face. If you’re lucky maturity is one of the few gains you get with age.
Very nice indeed
I Agree! GREAT TUNE!! This is the 1st time that I have heard of this group. That is why we come here. Thanx RP!
Ahhhhh. A female trombone player. That's something you don't see everyday.
To be fair, I don't see trombone players most days.
Soft, soothing. Has a bit of Orchestra Baobab to it but with a much softer touch.
... I was 2/3rds in when I suddenly realized it had grabbed me.
Yup. Just snuck on me now as well.
Ahhhhh. A female trombone player. That's something you don't see everyday.
The trumpet player is a woman, as well! And they both sing, beautifully!
I like it.
