Koray Savas 2190 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Not strictly jazz, but The Cat Empire infuse so many different genres together, I can't help but marvel at their individuality. One of my favorite bands, and this is my favorite song off their new album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon McBride 113 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Some of my favorites: The arrangement by Bob Curnow is really good too. I would like this song even more it there wasn't a crazy long drum solo. Played this for marching band as a freshman. Good memories. Hated this song at first, but it grew on me.
