When I received the new Fulton Street Jazz Band CD I promptly put it in my car CD and listened to almost all of it.  BTW the ensemble is wonderful and very tight.  Molly's performance is excellent and worth buying the CD for alone.

I listened to the CD a couple of more times but never got to the last tune.  

I enjoyed listening to some tunes that I hadn't heard before along with several that you rarely hear.  Great variety. It's refreshing to not have to wade through yet another rendition of "Saints".  .

Then I got to the last cut on the CD, "High Society".  Wow the Clarinet (Bob Sakoi) / Cornet (Paul Edgerton) soli blew me away. What precision.  Bob Saved the best for last.

Hat's off to the other musicians on this CD for a great performance too.  It's guys like this that keep OKOM alive and demonstrate how vibrant this music really is.
