this song is a ripoff of frank zappa's sofa n1, wake up.

@dratl1487 Perhaps you're the one who should wake up and listen closely, as the songs sound completely different and have different chord progressions. If anything, sofa n1 is a lousy imitation of Waltz in A

Melodically amazing!!! Technically it's so ethereal and soulful you'd have to have half a heart not to be move by such emotion. Lenny Pickett is musics best keep secret. He's a savant with divine talent and resides in the milieu of brilliance with Davis, Munk, Parker , Yo Yo Ma and the other greats!

@SNLThemeAddict I totally agree with you dude. GE Smith was playing the same theme years ago. I don't think that they have anything in common with the Frank Zappa song.

I appreciate you putting this on YouTube. I've been searching for a great SNL closing to put on CD for years. Tonight I finally found one. Thanks for the remix and if you can, please do one with GE Smith. :)

@SNLThemeAddict Well, first of all, while you're right that it does have a different chord progression, and he's wrong that it's a ripoff of Sofa #1, you're also incorrect in saying Sofa is a ripoff of Waltz in A, as Sofa was written before SNL came into existence..
