Maybe someone who plays sax can answer this. I saw Buster Williams and his band last night. Steve Wilson was on tenor and soprano. When Buster was introducing the band, he said this about Steve, when Steve is at home he loves to blow his horn in his bathroom up against the titles to get that big sound. Do horn players really practice in their ceramic tiled bathroom to get a larger sound?

As Michael said, despite the poor sound in spots, Hank gets to strech out a lot here.

Many of these are just pieces with the composers name in the titles. I was going for more personal tunes like "Blood Count." This was Strayhorn's last composition. He wrote it in the hospital while dying from his cancer. Tom Harrell's "Mood Swings" is another one mentioned that fits what I going for.

I was listening to Billy Strayhorn and realized, he gives titles to some of his compositions that are autobiographical. "Upper Manhattan Medical Group", and "Blood Count" are two. Can you think of any other compositions that are autobiographical by other jazz composers?

Joe Chambers Roy Haynes Max Roach
