Hi Scott,
I was watching Weather Report in Montreux, and two things came to my mind :
1- They're all great musicians, but they all look like great musicians, except Manolo Badrena. I think he looks like a mad scientist. But I think this might be common to all percussionist, since they have to juggle with a thousand different instruments that no one knows.
2- Each time I listen to them, it reminds me of Fat Albert and the Cosby kids (by the way, I only knew the french version of it, and I didn't know it was done by Bill Cosby until today when I tried to find the original title)
I only saw him in person one time and it was more than 20 years ago so I don't remember what he looks like. Great player though, and his contribution to WP was important.
