I think the highlight at 3:00 is “Bingo” not “Mary Had a Little Lamb”

In case no one knows."Perdido" means lost. It's Spanish 😊 I personally can only give kudos to the bassist or double bassist reminiscent of Charles Mingus❤. Otherwise a weak Ella Fitzgerald weak Charlie Parker weak Diz can't mention Bud Powel😢Max Roach 😢
