I struggle with the whole Head Hunters/80s fusion stuff and the same with Wayne Shorter and his fusion thing, Weather Report but (just about) everything else both of them have done, together and solo is all I would ever need for music if I had to choose. And their combined work with Miles Davis "2nd greatest quartet" is some of the best music, of any genre, the world will ever hear. I read the other day Wayne has had to retire from playing live due to health reasons, which is just depressing and I doubt I'll ever get to see Herbie play again due to the pandemic, fucking world! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the Gillespie but he is more of a curator than a creator, but I don't think there is anything wrong with that. They still absolutely kick it live Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never smelled a more concentrated stench of green in my life either. I saw the first night of that tour at Olympia. Well over the top with full Gospel choir and brass section. Moving on up was epic They did a 45 minute set of greatest hits as the warm up band first. Saw them later in the tour in Brighton and it was even better they had really worked out how to play the album live Edited June 2, 2021 by spongebob toonpants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammynb 3355 Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Haven't seen this in years but was reading about it recently so thought I should have a watch again. Brilliant film/band at this stage in their career, then it all went to shit with Little Creatures, True Stories was interesting, especially if you saw the film and then Naked their last album was actually decent but no one gave a fuck about them by then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
