Not in mine! "A handclap???" as Lady Bracknell might have said.

Today - Weather Report (1982)

'Volcano For Hire' is such a riotous feel-good tune.

[Joseph K]

Today, concluding my listening to Shorter's studio albums in my CD collection where he is leader or co-leader: Without a Net.

Just finally watched the BBC4 broadcast of the Wayne Shorter Quartet. Very nice but I would have preferred at least another tune...
