I studied classical clarinet in school and had a trio that studied music of the 12th, 13th, and 14th centuries. These things have indirectly influenced my compositions, so to speak, while musicians like Thad Jones, Mel Lewis, Count Basie, and all the jazz I've listened to have had a direct influence.\" The smooth groover M-1 recalls Weather Report's black market days; M-2 is a lively call-and-response exchange between dynamic horns and guest percussionist Marcio Doctor; and M-3 swings straight ahead, M-4, a Cuban rumba-like groove, M-8, the only ballad, and M-9, a big band version of a song Mintzer recorded with the Yellowjackets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.A Reprieve\u003cbr\u003e2.The Conversation\u003cbr\u003e3.Stay Up\u003cbr\u003e4.Montuno\u003cbr\u003e5.Whack\u003cbr\u003e6.Canyon Winds\u003cbr\u003e7.Herky Jerky\u003cbr\u003e8.New Look\u003cbr\u003e9.One Music\u003cbr\u003e10.Vm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jazzline Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45132422283553,"sku":"4049774770821","price":462.0,"currency_code":"MXN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/products\/4049774770821.jpg?v=1684106239","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-mx\/products\/4049774770821","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
