When Elephants Dream of Music...

Pirote & Lulu from Bob Moses's seminal (1983) release When Elephants Dream of Music. Cover art is Bob's beautiful water painting which also captures the beauty of the artist's musical compositions.



Could not find this track available on YouTube so do yourself a favor and purchase this amazing album. Below is the track "Trevor" also on When Elephants Dream of Music. The compositions are a lush, rich tapestry and may be considered like Gil Evans' work or  Bobby Previte's  (Claude's Late Morning) album from the same time period (1988) as big band music for people that don't like big band (no offense to Buddy Rich). Or a gateway to big band music.


Bob's groove on Picolo & Lulu is a sparse, tight Miles/loft funk insistent rock type beat:
