Wonderful clip Andy. Who said Charlie Parker was hard to understand?  
<grin>

One of my favorites is "The Good The Bad and The Ugly". I'll bet Ennio  
Morricone likes it too. See it at:

They really bring out the beauty of the tune. Very inventive group,  
very good connection with the audience. Great stuff indeed.

Cheers,
