This Don Ellis Orchestra piece developed in a different direction, but at first it sounded a lot like the friendly flugelhorn noodling of Mr. Chuck Mangione...

@Greg: Wasn't he the guy who pitched on LSD? If so, very appropriate! @Jeff: Yeah, it's sort of like Chuck Mangione stitched back together after his parts were ripped apart by vultures.
