The Rhythmic Eight play "I'm On My Way South", featuring good solos by Sylvester Ahola, Arthur Lally (on alto sax) and Rudy Starita (on xylophone). Lovely relaxed playing by the band throughout, with Arthur Lally weaving his way through the ensemble passages on baritone sax. Nice "head arrangement" intro too.
