Birdland - alfstone covers Weather Report (1977)

[alfstone]

...well...

...a rather minimalistic (just acoustic guitar and a drum loop) arrangement of the great tune by Joe Zawinul.

Dedicated to Jaco Pastorius, hoping he will forgive me for this...

Enjoy!  

Alfredo

Oh I know this well Alfredo - I used to sing with an 18 piece band and they used to play this. This is very charming - I'd love to see your hands when you play, what about a video

magic!

Nicel done! I'm very familiar with the Manhattan Transfer version of this, but like this stripped back approach very much. Such a cool tune.

That guitar sounds sharp and warm, nice post

[64Guitars]

Excellent guitar playing.

[Geir]

Very nice Alfredo !!! You're one hell of a guitar player!!!

[dasilvasings]

eheheheh! great song! I'm a huge fan of Weather Report, Zawinul, and of course, good old Jaco!
Love this song, but my favorite album is "Black Market". I won't challenge you for a collab - that is "too much sand for my truck".

Oh! And you just reminded me of another album from the 70's nobody covered (Jan. 1975 to be more exact) - Keith Jarrett's Koln Concert... Don't know why ;-)
