Nothing Says The 70s To Me Like Icarus


Ralph Towner, 12-string guitar
Gary Burton, vibes

I can't believe this is 40 years old.  It sounds as fresh as I remember it sounding when I bought the LP.   Wasn't a huge Weather Report fan but this brings back some memories.  As I recall, there's a lunar crater named for this piece, named that by astronauts, not geeks.

Update:  Song For A Friend 


I'm going to order the CD as soon as I post this.  I don't usually buy the CD if I've still got the LP but I want this without the pops and nicks.
