"Children of Sanchez", Mangione, from "Live at the Hollywood Bowl"

"Tom Sawyer", Rush, from "Moving Pictures"

"Anonymous Skulls", Medeski, Martin, and Wood, from "End of the World Party"

"Declare Guerre Nucleaire", Hives, from "Vidi, Vini, Vicious"

Your Chuck Mangione reference made me think of a Mangione recording that I have. I originally thought it was the Hollywood Bowl concert but it turned out to be his "Land of Make Believe" concert instead. Guess I should check out the other one...

OT: This maybe off topic a bit, but not really. I'm reading the liner notes to the "Land of Make Believe" concert and noticed something pretty cool if you're a person who likes good brass players. The guest trumpeter is Jon Faddis, something I had noticed when I first got the album. What I didn't notice is that the horn section for the orchestra is the Canadian Brass Quintet!! As I said, pretty cool stuff if you like a good horn section.

I have a few Canadian Brass recordings, and like their sound. I'll have to check out "Land of Make Believe"
