Spwee,
Maybe my MP3 encoding made the song sound better
About the Tribal Tech guys, you know Willis worked for Wayne Shorter for a time post-Weather Report? And Henderson was in the Zawinul Syndicate for a year or so?
Yeah, my wife and I bought the house we live in in 1995, for nearly $280,000, about the cheapest thing we could find that wasn't a total shoebox or a condo and wasn't in a neighborhood full of criminals... It's about 1400 sq. ft., small but almost liveable. we could probably have sold it for nearly $500 K recently, but then what good would that do? To get anything larger or nicer, it would be $800 K or higher.
Berlin was amazing, and a really sharp guy; I used to love those articles he wrote in guitar player. I've got that CD Pump It! where he plays Clapton's famous "Crossroads" solo on the bass. Wonder what he's up to?
Another guy who vanished is Bill Connors. He was the original fake Mahavishnu in Chick Corea's Return to Forever, before DiMeola. Next he played acoustic guitar for several years, with a few solo albums on ECM and as a sideman with a bunch of folks like Paul Bley and Jan Garbarek. Then in the mid-80's he re-emerged in NYC and put out three electric guitar records in about three years, very Holdsworthy-sounding, nice stuff... then he disappeared.
Man, you took lessons from Joe Diorio, too? I'm jealous. I need lessons with somebody to break through my jazz barrier. I've listened to it since I was 18 but I can't seem to play changes; I never quite make that breakthrough. I also would like to study composition with Charlie Banacos... he does it via mail, maybe I'll try that some day.
