I thought I'd start a new thread for listening to WooF members' solos by hobbyists like me or as part of a Community band.

In this unique take on Fiddler on the Roof I have a solo (starting shortly after minute mark 5:25). I dunno, solos alway freak me out and I'm never happy with them. But there you have it. Needed more vibrato me thinks.

I don't know whether these are in the spirit of the thread, but they're the only solos I can find recorded with our community band.

The first track is our lady vocalist with me accompanying her on piano. The accompaniment is improvised based on a road map we worked out.

The second track is the community band's dixieland contingent. I'm playing cornet in that band.

In an effort to get some more contributions, here's another seasonal entry here. It's one that most of you have probably seen. I'm playing the ElectroWhoCardioFlook aka the Eppelsheim bass sax (keyed to low A).
