Agreed! He is a master of notes, but can move beyond notes at the exact same time. He can also sound like two people (or more) at the same time. I've got the Sun Bear concerts on vinyl. Might have to give a few a spin tomorrow. Thanks for making this post!

Totally!! They also get me to go back and listen how they fit in with the band's other recordings and I then I end up listening to everything over and over again. It's really an infinite well.
John Coltrane's versions of Afro Blue. Very different from Mongo Santamaría's original. I like both approaches, but Coltrane's recordings of it were all just so powerful.
