Thank you Jazzz65. A 26 year itch finally scratched. I have a tape off the radio of this from Dominion theatre 1985. Lost about a minute from 8.25 as I turned the tape (remember that? didn't notice it had ended) Also got to see the fun between Joe and Omar that has the crowd in stitches in London. The whole band on fire. Got to be one of the best WR posts. Thanks again.
Look though, Joseph parries, confident and foxy skittish glance as if a matador, ah! that glance, that confidence, nonchalant glissandos, so very expressive, restful. Contest well met…. ‘draw’ that ordinary, extraordinary night.
I must be the most stupid jazzy bard from middle England that I know.
Having fed in 2 verses of prose, up comes the first only twice, the second verse of prose I will submit again as the first submission of the second verse of prose must be lost in the ether, I can but hope that this second submission of the second verse of prose shows itself clearly this next time.... simples!
Eye and Ear Contest That the moon shone in the sky that night was a given the stage now set, hushed arena, all expectant suddenly, a contentious air gladiators primed and ready, posturing by eye and ear quiet ..... now starts the action Omar towering , safe within his armour explosive, beating, thumping, challenging Power Ranger meets Transformer Thor begat Thunder.

Thanks for posting, I've been looking for this one for ages! This is one of my favourite WR tunes (if not absolute #1), and this performance is just so entertaining and brilliant! Such a musical unity, I think they all spoke that language with each other in real life, like Zawinul and Hakim do here :-D
Great stuff! Hakim, Erskine, Cobham, Griffin. And the list goes on and on.
