  • This was Alphonzo Johnson on Bass. Jaco did tunes with Flora but not tis one.

  • ENJOY THE VANESSA WILLIAMS VERSION, HOWEVER................. THIS IS THE ORIGINAL CLASSIC I LOVE & REMEMBER FROM MY WEED SMOKIN' & GRAFFITI DAYS!!!

  • Funky Alphonso Johnson....this was a bad cat!!!! Check him out with George Duke/Billy Cobham band circa 1975....it's posted.

  • @MrKenndawg , that is why I always stress to people that we need to stop SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and PIPA (Protect I P Act).  Both are nothing but another machination to control the internet and we cannot, no, scratch that, WE MUST NOT let these politicians sell us out.

  • @nubonyx This is why I'm so happy with youtube. So much of our great music has been lost and/or hard to come by. Now, I'm exposed to not only my beloved favs but also this vast discovery of new music (that in today's market), I'd never have been able to hear. i'll check out LLH. thanks PEACE!

  • @MrKenndawg , but,,,,sometimes I have just sit back and listen to Jaco. Man that cat was brilliance on a bass. I was watching a video the other day of this Afro - Brazilian kid who couldn't of been more then twelve play the bass like Jaco. I was in awe. I think, I mean I really believe good music is coming back. Right now I'm grooving to Joni Mitchell"s Blue Motel Room. When you have time check out Lianne La Havas. I think you'll feel her my friend. It is all peace beloved.

  • @nubonyx thanks...i got it:)

  • @MrKenndawg , I couldn't answer that question my friend. But, he did fall off the grid so to speak, but he never fell off as a bassist if you get what I'm saying.

  • @nubonyx Thanks! At the time of this release, I traveled throughout the city with some bands who tried to improve on this musical movement. And I do remember Alphonso Johnson: a wonderful bassist, however, it did'nt seem that he took off like Purim, George Duke, Stanley Clake and the others. I beleive he settled for the studio musicial-position? Right?

  • @MrKenndawg , I just checked it out and it was Alphonso Johnson.
