Came upon this birdland version thru my favorites.
Last play may well have been 11 years ago.
That was the most recent comment and there were zero thumbs either way on any of the comments.
Clearly not everyone's cup of tea, but I like it.
High 7 from me.

Similar name anyway. It's likely that no one has referred to his album because he released the album 11 years before this song was written.
Really?
Almost?
Bluegrass?
No....jazz. Check out the Weather Report!

No more progressive blugrass than this!
Newgrass!
Wow, I recognized this tune immediately after the first several notes. What a cool, cool fusion, progressive jazz tune from the great band Weather Report, covered by blue grass musicians. Just too cool. Bela Fleck, eat your heart out.
I graduated from the SUNY Environmental Sciences and Forestry class of 87 and when we were ushered into the Carrier Dome for the combined ESF/Syracuse University Graduation, a bunch of ESF alums handed us all (ESF graduates only) kazoos to play pomp and circumstance. Needless to say, you could only hear it a couple of rows back from our line, but the crowd reaction was hilarious!
Thanks for the memory!
I must dig out the WEATHER REPORT vinyl tonight.
An observation so brilliant, I wish I had made it myself. (Additionally, kazoos = instant hilarity)
I offer both my apologies and thanks in advance, FlatCat, as I will absolutely steal it, in order to describe anything and everything that pales in comparison to its original, or just plain stinks on its own.
