I wouldn't have complained if the ratio of Vitous to McLaughlin & Henderson was a little lower, but it's not like you're listening to Ron Carter torturing a cello or something. Guy Quote
chris olivarez Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 I saw the group with Miles,Gary Bartz,Keith Jarrett,Michael Henderson,Jack DeJohnette and Airto and I really enjoyed hearing them play. I'm really looking forward to the cellar door set. Quote
