I love this soundtrack and would love to get into more Gil Evans that is like this. "Va Va Voom" rocks. (Very different than Sketches in Spain.) Can anyone make recommendations for Gil Evans? Some Gil Evans tracks mentioned in the movie credits seem to be exclusive to the movie and unreleased on other media.
