Mercy Mercy Mercy ideas.

There is a cool version, done by the Dirty Dozen Brass Band with a real New Orleans second line feel - very cool (although it is Tuba not bass in the bottom)

Thanks Mike.
A friend of mine had it and I borrowed it from him.
We worked a bit with the keyboard (who also happens to be the arranger for the band) and after a few tries, we settled on a Dirty Dozen meets Maceo version.
I made up a nice bass riff that I play unison with the trombone, a bit behind the beat. It sounds very laid back and punchy.
I'll record it and post a mp3 if I get a chance.
