Title: Brann Dailor (Mastodon) hears Weather Report for the first time

Oh these keep on getting better. Birdland is a classic WR tune, for drummers especially since there's hardly any playing, just some percussive use of (mostly) hi-hat en a bass drum here and there. makes sense with Alex Acuna playing it. Intended to shine as another Jaco Pastorius masterclass, Zawinul wrote this as opening tune to the classic Heavy Weather album.

Well, here's the answer - and it was a fun watch!:
