@linos That's so cool! I'm not too familiar with what she plays, but I must've watched or listened to Shadows And Light a couple dozen times by now... if you have any more recommendations, I'd love to hear 'em :D
For those who don't know – Shadows And Light is her 1980 Live album featuring many of the same tunes, supposedly recorded while on tour with #Mingus. It's a playful but deeply touching collaboration with The Persuasions and several Jazz icons – including Michael #Brecker, Pat #Metheny and Jaco #Pastorius. Over the course of about 80 minutes, #Joni and the others make you feel just about every emotion there is.
When I watched it for the first time, I was honestly a bit offended – it felt like when a friend excitedly recounts an outing that you would've _loved_ to be a part of – had anybody told you ahead of time :l
I felt I'd missed out & I don't want y'all to feel that way. Here's to the long-running conversation between #Jazz and #Folk – Cheers! ^^

Seems like there is a new Michael Brecker book coming out. It's already hit the UK, but it's expected in the States on Tuesday.
Tonight's song, "Something's Coming" from the Dave Grusin big band, with a ripping solo by Michael Brecker. So good.
Ok ok, ONE More. Great YouTube channel, Sharp Eleven Music, transcribed the 1992 inauguration where they had 10 of the best saxophonist in the world play for Pres. Clinton. Sanborn, Grover, Albright, Scott, Kenny G, Koz, Mulligan, Whalum, Stigers, and BRECKER.
Brecker just comes in last and cleans the house. (unabashed Brecker fan)
