Was lucky to have a mom who played her full record collection around her then-wee son, including the original Mendes album from whence this track came.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 9:54am

No bad versions of Flute Thing.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 9:54am

This Alan Lorber album is excellent. Really cool blend of exotica and Now Sound pop. Featuring Colin Walcott and Vinnie Bell!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 9:55am

I'll be playing a different version of Flute Thing soon...maybe this Friday. No spoilers.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 9:56am

Wow, Colin Walcott, really? Very cool. Larry, cool to hear you today--I'm not usually up late enough to hear your show. Love D:O but this is a nice twist on Sunday morning.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 9:56am
Funky16Corners:

Morning Mark!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 9:57am
Funky16Corners:

Yes, Walcott on sitar and tabla. Nobody credited for the gamelan
  9:59am
Mark R:

Colin was a very special talent. It was a great loss when he died, he had so much more to give. Loved him in Oregon of course, but also loved the Codona album he did with Don Cherry, one that's somehow eluded m collection thus far. I aim to correct that soon.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:01am
Funky16Corners:

Yes, a really talented, interesting musician. Credited on a bunch of interesting jazz and pop stuff early on.

There are a bunch of Beatle covers coming up but oddly enough none by Enoch!

Dean:

These (marvelous) sets are reminding me of an LP my mom played now and then, Mariano & the Unbelievables, a bunch of pop tunes c.'67 covered as if you a Baroque chamber ensemble.
  11:06am

^as if by a Baroque...

Hey Dean! I have one of Mariano's albums. It's very cool!

I think it might be the sole M&tU album.

Oops, nope. He did one in '68, too: https://www.discogs.com/Mariano-And-The-Unbelievables-The-25th-Hour/master/1019541
