Since Winifred Atwell was repeated so many times, I'll offer several new ones for #13.

Bent Fabric -- Alley Cat

Henry Mancini -- Love Theme from Romeo and Juliet

Henry Mancini -- Theme from Love Story

Since Glenn Miller played the trombone and In the Mood can hardly be considered a showcase for the trumpet, I will do #7.

9. Acapulco 1922 - Kenny Ball (Something went wrong here so the next one is number ten)

Thanks Sandra for the reminder of that song. And you're right, so many terrific trumpet players through the years. They become the lead "vocalists" in their bands.
