Rest In Peace, Brazilian jazz pioneer, and master of the tenor saxophone, Gato Barbieri.

Here he is, with pianist, Dollar Brand, playing the tune, "81st Street".  Gato wrings tons of emotion from his horn, on this piece.




...And, another soulful tune, Barbieri featured on.  Here he is, playing tenor sax, with Carlos Santana on Santana's composition, "Europa", circa 1977.
