I have a bunch of AccuJazz channels as presets on my TuneIn account, but I guess I set them before July, because I've just discovered they added an AACM channel in July. If I used such words, I'd say awesome.

I think Aretha's version is much better than Warwick(e)'s. Warwick has done respectable versions of Brazilian music, including a duet with Chico Buarque.

What's that all about, Bo Lero? Scheherezade Zadie Smith Sister Sadie

Three greatest versions of Say a Little Prayer: Rahsaan Roland Kirk Aretha Franklin Al Green

I'd bet it was John Blake, who recorded a couple of times with Tyner in that period. Possibly some overlap with this lineup?: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizon_%28McCoy_Tyner_album%29

There was also flak about Sinatra and a young Natalie Cole on one of his specials in the '60s. In Brazil, although there's plenty of racism, those same constraints didn't exist. Elis Regina and Jair Rodrigues had a great TV show together.

The problem with your comment is that there are plenty of people with high IQs who are stupid and full of unjustified machismo. Not in New York. Here, what you see is what you get. I've lived in NY all my 56 years and I've met plenty of stupid people with high IQs, especially at NYU, Columbia and the "financial services" sector.

A while back I DL'd a dvd of the full Hollywood Palace show (A&M night) that clip is from.

If you're on Spotify, here's a link to what I've got. Some great suggestions above were not available.

I fixed the image URL.

Somebody has put together a Spotify playlist of all available Rivers leader and sideman appearances:

The Man Who Wasn't There The Man Who Never Was The Invisible Man

Isn't that what we do?
