Probably the most jazz-like tunes in this set are "Englishman In New York" (by Sting), "Let's Stay Together" (Al Green), "Isn't She Lovely" (Stevie Wonder) and "All Night Long" by Lionel Richie. The muted trumpet solo from Arturo on "Englishman In New York" is awesome, he keeps ascending and hits a Triple-G#, playing confidently throughout/5(14).

Max B sampled this song in "Goon Music (We Run New York)" The band Loose Ties performed Englishman in New York at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival in Colorado.
