"Wichita Linesman" (Jimmy Webb) ~ Dave Stryker ~ Live at The Falcon


I heard Dave Stryker's recording of Wichita Linesman from his CD, 8-Track in which he and a slightly different set of musicians make some great jazz from what might have stayed under explored musical material, pop hits of the 1970s.   This performance is pretty great too.  Stryker's laconic lines are played exactly as I'd expect the Lineman to have said what was said, though I didn't know that till I heard him play it.
