Joe Zawinul

Post by mister_pianoman »

I just thought I'd post this here, because it doesn't seem to be getting much coverage, but Joe Zawinul (one of the founders of the jazz fusion movement, founded Weather Report with Wayne Shorter) died tuesday at the age of 75.

You might not recognize his name, but you probably would recognize several of his tunes (e wrote Birdland, and In a Silent Way, along with several other well known jazz tunes)

I've been thinking about em. On thursday, I'm playing a show with my brass band. We're playing mercy, mercy, mercy for him.
