The only thing that's new on this album is the cover! Anyone who's a fan of Wynton, which I am, already has these tunes! Once again Sony is just trying to make an easy dollar. I hope Wynton was forced to release this, because I would hope he hasn't lowered himself to the standards of a huge financial company like Sony!

His legendary tone and control shines through at these slower tempos.Warning, the sheer ease ma cause drowsiness. Do not operate heavy machinery while lstening or use power tools.
