This track is all about the bass line. There's your sick boy. The melody on top is cool and clicks right along, this band was so tight. But, you have to at least grant the notion that the refrain is copped from a doorbell. Peace.

@DeeCee8121 tighter than dress shoes on bigfoot.

for me..its the keyboard part that comes in at around 3.58 man that is the sickest baddest meanest most sublime solo ever.

[roscoegino]

@bbqbod That sealed the deal for me too. Zawinul was a friggin boss, man. After Miles bands,. this was the only monsta jazz band left.

[roscoegino]

@BassGuitarGuy128 No. Palladium was the a name of a popular NYC jazz club back in the 30s and 40s. It's their dedication to that place.

This song changed my life. Jaco's playing on this tune is - for me - the best bass playing ever recorded.

@DeeCee I think that refrain you refer to came not from a doorbell, but the peals of church bells, from a long time ago. The doorbell is just a cheap imitation.

@roscoegino to be honest miles band started a lot of good shit. if you think about it the four best keyboardists came out of that band and made some of the best music ever: herbie hancock, joe zawinul, keith jarrett, chick corea. n all of them played on "in a silent way" (except jarrett)

[timages]

Jaco Pastorious at his best...with that big fat sound.. poppin that fretless bass! A great Wayne Shorter composition...what else would you expect...they'll never be another Wayne!

I thank my long ago friend and fellow guitarist Colin Butler for enlightening me to the joys of this superb album. Excellent.
