Would anybody be able to identify a Jazz music piece?

I have a track I recorded off radio many, many years ago, but I have no idea of the title or artist. If I could find a place to upload a segment, would anybody be able to identify it?

Opens with a brush on cymbals, then some bass strings before some keyboard comes in.

The track is about 7M, but I'll try to clip the first minute or so when I get a chance.


It's good enough to me that I'd like to be able to seek out more from the artist, whoever it is.

This is the first 3 1/2 minutes or so, about 5M. The first minute and half are cymbals, then the bass kicks in .....

There's a melody there I recognize, but I can't put my finger on it. 1970s, which isn't my forte. Maybe Weather Report? I'll poke around my collection, and see if anything jumps out at me.

edit:
Song might be Candyman. Still looking

Do you know anything more about the track? Is it live? What's the exact length?

Not live as far as I can tell, no crowd noise. It's at least 7 minutes, but it was recorded on cassette and the tape ended there ... suddenly.


Somewhere in the back of my head, I'm thinking Thelonious Monk, but I don't have any other known tracks to compare it to. I also hear shades of Wayne Shorter, Dave Brubeck, Miles Davis and others.

You don't have an Android phone? You can use google search/assistant and have it listen and identify.

I came to say that. Just click the microphone icon on the search bar on any Android phone. It isn't 100% perfect on obscure music, but it identifies over 95% of what I search for.

Or, if you don't have Android, Cortana on a Windows computer will do it if you have a microphone.
