I'm very proud of this recent live recording of my band, "Dr. Jazz & the Jazzbugs".
Not for my guitar solo, which is pretty ordinary, but for what unexpectedly happens around the 2:50 mark... the guitar and horn somehow lock into a daffy little riff which neither of us could have possibly planned or even explained to each other in advance.
This mysterious subconscious quality is one of the things I really love about jazz... it's magic, but you can't make it happen, you just have to allow it to happen.
My dream is that someday that wonderful musical genius Tcha Limburger will bring his violin and clarinet and sit in with our band, because I have a sneaking suspicion that he likes to play these great old twenties tunes as much as we do...

That's excellent Will! The whole thing sounds very nice including your solo.
