You played an amazing track around 7;30, organ and great horn (sax), and guitars, I was driving , had to get out of the car and didn't get to hear you say who it was. I am here now on ckcu web page to try to figure out what is was.!

ETHANOPIUM it was . the conversation above at 730 helped. YouTube does not know it , but Spotify does.
