Driving back from lunch and listening to the radio, they were playing Coltrane and I was struck by the similarities between "Going Nowhere" from the Jing Chi albums and Coltrane's "A Love Supreme". Maybe an homage to Robben's favorite sax player? Vinnie paying tribute to Elvin Jones? After I remembered that I had the live from Yoshi's disk in the car, it even sounded like they are in the same key, or close to it. Can't imagine chosing Em for tenor sax but Trane could do whatever he wanted.
Anyone else hear this? _________________ There are no such things as wrong notes, there's only the look on your face.

No, but I did notice that credit was not given to Miles for "Blues MD." Miles wrote it and played it throughout the 80's.

Robben mentioned that at the clinic that I went to in October. He thought it was wrong and that Miles should have been listed as the composer. _________________ There are no such things as wrong notes, there's only the look on your face.
