The CATS.

[@Ewerb7]

Wonderful lineup of jazz greats.

[@sound-ur1bq]

the great Wilbur Bascomb, this guy also plays on Jeff beck Albums like Wired i think, i did recognized its sound

[@loganwhite819]

Wilbur Bascomb is one of the most underrated Bassist and he deserved/deserves more attention

[@DurielMoore]

Jon Faddis,uncle to Madlib.

[@gabriel_kyne]

when i realize that this isnt on Spotify or Apple Music, i wonder how much other amazing music is lost to streaming services

[@swingingelephant3415]

this is why you should just download music off youtube instead

[@jwizdum2103]

There’s literally billions of songs that aren’t on streaming, KZbin and raw crate digging/CD’s are the best ways to find stuff like this, especially from the 70’s

[@RaiderEleven]

A great studio orchestra created by legendary producer Bob Thiele on his own Flying Dutchman label. This song is "Shadows" by Lonnie Liston Smith who is on keyboards, the bass line is by Wilbur Bascomb, Jr., and the tenor sax solo is by either Steve Marcus or Bob Mintzer. Great performance with soaring strings.

[@gottohavesoul]

+RaiderEleven It's Steve Marcus.

[@rbsprods3200]

What an amazing performance with Bascomb's electric bass line booting things along, and yes, it is Steve Marcus who plays the powerful tenor sax solo, soaring above the strings and Smith's filigrees and solo.

[@teamclarktrackfield]

@ Raider….you know your music. Much respect….

[@peaceforchildren4303]

hey,, thanks!

[@Beenyad]

Not sure why but I trust that man on the cover with my life.

[@toprak3479]

He's giving somewhat out of touch but kindhearted dad energy

[@michiepooh]

I came across this via a link on twitter! Imagine that! Until yesterday, I didn't know this song existed and now I play it every chance I can! I love it so!

[@demvids8833]

[@swingingelephant3415]

[@eenergy540]

[@moyvilla9]

[@beatsbytheory]

[@boombapper788]

Today crate digged this while trift shopping. I really don't like to use samples that have been allready used, but this one I definately will use.

[@rudezgurl415]

Premier knew his shit

[@RaiderEleven]

Bob Thiele's "Mysterious Flying Orchestra" plays Lonnie Liston Smith's "Shadows" with a killer band that included Smith's keyboards; Steve Marcus' tenor sax solo, as well as Jon Faddis, Lew Soloff on brass; Charlie Mariano, Eddie Daniels, Bob MIntzer: reeds; Gene Bertoncini & Jerry Friedman guitar; Wilbur "Bad" Bascomb's bass; and Andy Newmark on drums with Guillhermo Franco's percussion. Thanks to Freakguitarman for this rare beautiful treat.
