I can only second Improvisie's opinion. Hard to believe you're not listening to a big band (or even a Big Band) and the energy is really catching - time for a lie down, I think !

I'd never heard of Dave Kane or this recording before sampling it on emusic. It's fresh, swinging, and, to my ears, completely original. This small band sounds like a much larger group through wildly imaginative arranging. Great solos from trumpet, sax, guitar, and the leader's bass, really smokin'!! Diverse moods, all fascinating. What a discovery!! More, please!!
