The Cookers - Live in Milan '12

Having re-uploaded an "old concert" by Billy Harper, is natural to post a more recent one.
"The Cookers is an all-star ensemble made up primarily of veteran bandleaders and star soloists, including tenor saxophonist Billy Harper, trumpeters Eddie Henderson and David Weiss, alto saxophonist Craig Handy, pianist George Cables, bassist Cecil McBee, and drummer Billy Hart."
