It has a kind of Button up, a bit, (the version played by Hancock and Corea in 78). I'm sure you know which part I have in mind. Slower, sure, but the atmosphere reminds me of the piece. Very Nice.

thank you for that! i hadn't heard that tune in a long time so i checked it out. there is some seriously funky playing on that track. i see what you mean, there is a certain similar atmosphere to the two recordings. some passages almost sound like sped-up Eddie Harris lines. very cool to point that out!

Great playing! Like the sections 1,47 - 2,05 and 3,23 - 3,40. Wonderful playing. And your endings are always nice surprises.I like this one too.

here's a great tune by Eddie Harris, "Freedom Jazz Dance." it's one of my favorite tunes in the book so unfortunately i got a bit out of hand i've actually never heard him play it, i only know the famous recording on Miles Smiles.
