Listening Contest Winner

The winner of the fifth installment of the Outside Pants Guess The Trumpet Player contest is……..no one! Well, technically someone did guess the first trumpet player but no one guessed the second. The correct answers: the first recording was of Don Cherry playing his song “Art Deco.” The second recording is a cover of “Art Deco” by Avishai Cohen off of his ridiculously good recent album “Introducing Triveni.” I guess I went too obscure with these two recordings. Though someone did correctly identify Don Cherry, someone else thought Cherry sounded “old and maybe had chapped lips!” Awesome! Oh well. You gotta listen to more Don Cherry, people :)

More to come on Avishai Cohen and “Introducing Triveni” tomorrow - an Outside Pants Album Spotlight.
