Gig with Jamey Aebersold
Listen to this guy, he's on his "gig" with Jamey Aebersold. Even though jazz band is over, you can still gig with the best of them right there in the comfort of your own room. This is a tune called Moments Notice by John Coltrane. It's got a lot of II-V chord progressions in there, and it moves along quickly. I like Brandon Lee's lines and phrasing, he's really got the hard bop style down pat.
