Lazaro Vega Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 It’s fitting, isn’t it, that Joe Zawinul, the pianist/keyboardist/bandleader born in Vienna, the epicenter of classical music, became a soul brother? Thank Cannonball Adderley. Zawinul’s 9 years with Adderley changed him. From the creative improvised spontaneity of early Weather Report to the groove based African and Middle Eastern influenced music of their later versions, Zawinul helped popularize jazz fusion, too. Say, “Birdland.” Or you can listen to it as part of Jazz From Blue Lake, here: www.bluelake.org/ondemand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
