Jazz Waltz/Afro Cuban 6/8
Duration ca. 9 min
The hardbop head, made famous by the Cannonball Adderley Quintet, is stated first in the original setting and appears completely reharmonized in the second chorus. After solos on the original groove, alto 1 is challenged by playing over the new chords and massive backgrounds. Finally the piece turns into a 6/8 afro-cuban groove, space for a modal solo.
