Dreaming of the Masters


Forty-nine years later, and we still can't decide if this is a jazz song, a rock song, a funk song, or a soul song.  But now - lo these 49 years later - now, we realize that it doesn't matter.  It's a great jam and the most human of expression as articulated by some great musicians.  Les McCann and Eddie Harris.  Swiss Movement.

Lyrics are still surprisingly topical, too.

And for those of you keeping score at home, the whole thing is in 4/4 time (1, 2, 3, 4).
