Grover Mitchell solo on 'It's Oh So Nice' – bucket?

The solo by Grover Mitchell on 'It's Oh So Nice' from Basie Straight Ahead:



That's bucket mute, right? We have a chart that says 'plunger' but… naah, I'm hearing bucket. Yes?

Doesn't sound like a bucket to me. Too edgy.

Sounds open to me. Maybe "half plunger" but not "plunger"

Do what you want if it's your solo.

Lovely solo to play. Hard not to sound good on it.
