The band in featured in the video above, BTW. Randy Brecker, Freddie Hubbard, trumpet; Joe Farrell, flute, tenor sax; Michael Brecker, Joe Henderson, tenor sax; George Duke, keyboards; Robben Ford, electric guitar; Alphonso Johnson, electric bass; Peter Erskine, drums. Apparently to be heard on Jazz Of The 80's (Eastworld, EWJ-80190)

That is quite a lot of miles for a motorcycle, isn't it? I take it's been reliable, then. I do see a good number of older HD and BMW motorcycles with very high mileage on FB Marketplace. Also Goldwings. Those three makers specifically seems to last. Also see many dual sport and adventure motorcycles with low miles on the clock. People just want to get rid of them, probably were impulse buys. I have been putting around the neighboring towns (it's pretty dense here in Southern Mass and RI; one town flows into another. There's a place a few miles away, where borders of four towns come to a confluence at basically one intersection.  Here's my Honda Trail, resting. Tomatoes at this farm stand are fantastic - juicy, fragrant, imperfect in appearance, cracked, scarred...as they should be. I take a large slice of an artisanal sourdough bread, this ugly tomato, burrata, olive oil, a bit of coarse sea salt, I got myself a good lunch. We are saving the seeds to plant in our little garden next year.     

I've seen Jerome Harris as a leader a couple of times and as a member of  few touring bands. I've never seen him play acoustic bass though. To be  honest, I didn't know he played with Sonny nor that he's been playing for so long. When I last saw him, which admittedly was a long time ago now, I thought he was younger than me. It turns out that he's 73 now, which really surprises me. His CD, "Rendezvous", is excellent. If you don't have it, grab a copy.

Same here. But I know many musicians over here who rave about these three. I think their musical approach is easier to comprehend than the black roots for German guys.
