Anyone know who does this great jazz track in the background?

I was only interested in the music of course.

I doubt this is a match, but it reminds me vaguely of the opening piece by Stuff on this video (Eric Gale's guitar, in particular).




Note that at the 6:50 mark or so, the pace picks up quite a bit.

Love listening to this kind of music, preferably with like individuals. I need it every once in a while.
Some kind of connection to it.

More than 40 minutes. Damn the ads.
Great compilation.

Very nice rendition of the Grover Washington Jr. classic. I never get tired of songs from the Reed Seed album.
