Moments Worth Listening For

The rapid-fire staccato opening of the title track where the saxophone seems to chase its own shadow.

A sprawling fifteen-minute exploration of Woody'n You that breaks down into a skeletal bass and sax dialogue.

The way the rhythm section locks into a relentless groove halfway through But Not for Me, pushing the solo into a fever pitch.
