I'm going to see them in concert tonight 😍 In my new band we cover this AWB track

I"m gonna a give a shout out to this guy.  Killer reinterpretations of well known bass parts with a little more elaboration in a gospel style but not overplaying or losing the pocket.   Gouche and Barnes should sit up and take notes because this is how it's done.

Not heard that version before but I've always liked Eddie Henderson's (original?) version. Also written by Alphonso Johnson according to Wikipedia.

Never can get too much of Herbie Hancock. Here's a nice live vid from 76..

Yeah, it’s Eddie’s piece and his records from that period are great. The Keyboard Circle version is cool too. Rob Franken was one of my lockdown discoveries; fantastic Rhodes player.

Well this was just amazing.
