Drop a line here or via PM if you'd like to call a tune in the next few weeks.
DO NOT tell me the tune ahead of time though, I like being surprised!
I'm going to try and make a "summer calendar" to keep this little exercise going.

Hi Jeff. Great series of threads and I have learned a lot in the last couple of weeks because of it. So I thought it may be time for me to call one and I think I have a good one in mind...

How's this week sound?

Any other takers?

I’ve got an idea for a tune, throw me into the mix please.

Cool, you'll be on for July 1st.

I suggest playing with the same good backg track.
Everyone who plays with their own background chooses what suits them.
Make jam a challenge.
Good Luck

I’d be happy to follow Ronstuff mid-July. Finishing up a brief hiatus this week, but should be back in the saddle next week.

Some potential tunes:
Bolivia by Cedar Walton
Voyage by Kenny Baron
On the Trail by Jimmy Heath
This Here by Bobby Timmons
-
Just to be a nit-picking pedant here for a moment (you know I enjoy it really) but On The Trail is by Ferde Grofe, from his Grand Canyon Suite. Somehow the tune was adopted by jazz musicians.
Ferde Grofe - Wikipedia
Clark Terry talks about it and plays it at 16:15 here, Kenny Burrell is also featured (he was on the Jimmy Heath recording too):

So, with Jeff's being the most recent call, are we back at the top of rotation:
TOMMO
John A
Triple
Ronstuff
