Strictly my opinion:

The trumpet solos and piano solos are terrible.  Goode bass, drums, trombone and clarinet.  

Guitar with a distortion box didn't add anything either.  

Ensembles are swinging.  But what in the hell did the trumpets think they were doing on their solos?  Playing Jazz???  I think not.
