Caetano Veloso reflecting on first meeting Gilberto Gil
“… when he met me he felt as though he were leaving behind a great loneliness: when he saw me he was sure that he had found a true companion.”
a beautiful expression of friendship

prob lowest on my ranking of Donald Byrd x Mizell Bros collabs
but that is very relative, since it still a stone jammer (expected from a Mizell/Sky High production), all-time cover art (Hirschfeld portrait), and killer band (alphonse mouzon, patrice rushen, gary batrtz, james jamerson, etc)
dig!!!
