Thanks Ginny,

Despite my being a trumpet/cornet/flugelhorn player, I like that 
McLaughlin  one best.
A bit "virtuosic" for my taste, but it sure hung together and was melodic.
The others were technically correct and tremendously well played, but 
this one
spoke to me where they didn't. I admire the hell out of Wynton and 
Sandoval as
trumpet players, but just didn't dig their Cherokees. But then I think 
Mozart sounds
like a bunch of  practice exercises, so what do I know.
