Performance: 4

O’s Notes: This ensemble plays warm fireside material, perfect for the Holiday season or any time you want a jovial back drop. The lineup is Dave Carpenter (b), Ron Eschetté (g), Roy McCurdy (d) and Mort on clarinet. Few people know that Weiss took a 40-year hiatus from playing that ended in 2001. He’s 70 now and plays like a legend. Eschetté’s performance is also spectacular. You’ll enjoy this live set.
