from: Forest Flower.





















September 18, 1966.

A lot of stoned hippies got turned onto jazz with this tune. Just read the YouTube comments. My favorite:

"Used to smoke up and lie back in the dark and let it take me away ... a dozen years later I was playing in punk bands while secretly listening to Steely Dan. Go figure!"

and then someone responds:

"Cuz you didn't practice your scales like Keith and Jacky Terrasson did ..."

**

Well, I still practice scales at age 70, and I'll never play like Keith. Listen at 1:16!
