For today's "Wednesday Whomper" we head back to a Cannonball Adderley tribute we did with Mike Abene, Dick Oatts, Terell Stafford and Peter Erskine. This is Mike's arrangement of "Walk Tall", featuring Dick Oatts on alto sax, Terell Stafford on trumpet, and Peter Erskine on drums, live in Viersen. (Unfortunately, the compression is a bit rough on this one, sorry about that) | WDR Big Band

When Neal Hefti was about to record "Repetition" in 1947, Charlie Parker happened to walk into the studio and was inpromtu added to the track, adding a different flavor. In this arrangement by Jörg Achim Keller, Parker's solo has been voiced on the entire sax section instead. Recorded live in "WDR Big Band Jazz Club" as a part of our Neal Hefty tribut from last year, conducted by Jörg Achim Keller. ------------------ Als Neal Hefti 1947 "Repetition" aufnehmen wollte, betrat Charlie Parker zufäll
