Hey, Barry the Brit. Love Herbie Hancock, but not your version of Watermelon Man, buddy. I like to hear the dominant melody. The Dolphins by Herbie was much better, and I really like it, naturally.
JPB, that version of Skokiaan was much the same. Maybe it was supposed to be funky(tacky on purpose). Inspired me to find the lyrics, however.
Used to get Herbie Hancock and Herbie Mann confused. Jazz flute is my thing.
