yeah such a cool player, always pushing it to the outer reaches. anyone know why he dropped out of the music biz for so long? seems like a shame that there aren't more recordings of him post-Miles.

holy shit, didn't know that was Cosey on that album - I thought it was Larry Coryell for some reason
