I came into the company garage and noticed someone backing into a space when the space behind it was completely open. They reversed and pulled forward to correct about 3-4 times. During that time, I drove up through the back side two spaces over, gathered all my things, and was at the garage exit by the time they finally parked.
Two longtime friends & collaborators, live at the North Sea Jazz Festival, playing a track the recorded for their 1997 duet album 1+1. The venue for this performance, the Hague’s Statenhal, was demolished four years after this recording. Only Hancock remains.
In progress; Louie Varland has given up an uncharacteristic two homers in the early innings.
After this holiday weekend, we'll open up the nominations for this year's Summer Mix, so start thinking about what you want tunes you'd like to add. Even if it's just one song, start picking it out. Who knows, maybe the mix will even come out in summer this year!
(By the way, Summer Mix 2022 is still up on the podcast feed if you need some good tunes this weekend.)
Wayne Shorter and Josef Zawinul were bandmates eleven years before they co-founded Weather Report; they played together in the Birdland Dream Band led by Maynard Ferguson. Shorter went on to join Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers, while Zawinul moved over to Cannonball Adderley’s sextet & quintet. Zawinul came over to play alongside Shorter in the studio group that supported Miles Davis’ foray into jazz-rock and fusion with In a Silent Way and Bitches Brew.
This excerpt from their 1976 appearance at Montreux features a tune written by the group’s new bassist, Jaco Pastorius, who had been with the group for just a couple months. Pastorius replaced Alphonso Johnson, splitting duties on Black Market, released the same year as this performance. Johnson had replaced original bassist Miroslav Vitouš in late 1973. As time wore on, Weather Report’s creative energies shifted from a Zawinul-Shorter polarity to a fractious Zawinul-Pastorius dynamic, but here the group is in near-peak form and Shorter shows he can blow the doors off a tune written by anyone.
And as a bonus, here’s the Shorter/Zawinul duet from that performance:

The boy is entering junior high next year, which means no more after school care. I'm not quite sure I want him spending so much time alone in the afternoon quite yet though.
