I really like the feel the soloist has for the song.

That's a great solo.  I'm always amazed how horn players can do the mouth/cheek breath thing with no wavering of tone and volume.  Thanks Dave.

A book I have says that Johnny Hodges (the sax player sitting down in the middle of the video) usually managed to look utterly bored.  That is a pretty fair description, I would say. LOL

The technique is called circular breathing.
