Second Wind Jazz Ensemble: Still Breathing

Recorded November 23, 2002 at Southminster Presbyterian Church as a benefit for South West Music School. Recording quality is somewhat iffy because we had only two recording mikes set up at the back of the hall, but it'll give you an idea of what the band sounds like. Files are approximately 3MB each.
