Had a long afternoon & evening filling out student loan stuff for Daughter #1. & my mom's birthday thrown in there. Chillin' time.
So some late night soothe the savage breast stuff.
A most beautiful Mingus number, With Joni Mitchell, Pat Methany, Michael Brecker and Jaco Pastorius (no no no, not him, the other guy). A Jazz supergroup if you will.

Jaco, Joe Zawinul, Wayne Shorter and a song that DEFINED Fusion.
And thanks, Pasto, for the link in comments. Never get tired of hearing that song ;>)
