Not many horn sections I've heard that could make such pastel like color.

[@FawleyJude]

Agreed.

[@JanM351531351]

The song is called "Toys"

Fantastic footage of a stunning group of musicians, thank you...

[@mbaseconcepts]

Great band! His last creative group that was pushing the boundaries. Herbie - “I think of Mwandishi as an R&D band - research and development, trying new things. It was all about discovery, uncovery, exploration, the unknown, looking for the unseen, listening for the unheard."

2:10 Buster Williams is a freaking virtuoso

[@WELCOME2PATSPLACE]

Agreed! "Firewater" is such an awesome composition/tune of his too! Herbie did his own version of it on "The Prisoner" in 1969

[@dee1380]

Herb is smooth bruh..

[@MyFlare123]

that;s a fl, not a tp!

[@FawleyJude]

They already used "fl" as an abbreviation for "flute". So maybe Eddie's playing a "flg"?

[@frankfeldman6657]

In his autobiography, Herbie claims he stopped making interesting music cause the Buddha told him to, bwahahaha.

Frank Feldman stunning ignorance
