I think political/climatological discussion is unnecessary here, the song just happens to be called "Global Warming", that it!

Gosh this song just makes me so happy :) It's one of those things just make you smile despite a bad day. Lovely song, although the name of it's not so great :D

I think the more important discussion to be had about this video is that Sonny MF Rollins is a jazz god.

Look and especially listen! That which we call a rose ,by any other name would still smell as sweet.You squares who want to get a little attention with your squabbles should realize that it is the music which pours out this man's soul that contains the treasures.

While you’re engrossed in the Calypso grace of Sir (Theodore) Sonny, try to wrap your head around this:

In this LIVE episode of an amazing life, Sonny is at the age of 78.

In the early seventies I used to listen to Motown Soul and soon I discovered the Blues. Gradually my taste develloped and to me it's so natural to explore the rich world of music. Sonny Rollins caught my attention with a very beautiful version of

" God bless the Child " ( recommend together with the vocal version of Billie Holiday ). People that is the most pure Blues you can find in Jazz. Brilliant !

The best version of Global Warming in my opinion is on a gig he did to commemorate 9/11.
