When most people think of Bobby Mcferrin, they think of Don't Worry Be Happy. I'm not knocking that song, but this is the sort of thing Bobby should be remembered for:
Recorded live on a tour of Germany in 1984, the album was the first of it's kind to feature a jazz vocalist completely unaccompanied.
The opening track, his reworking of The Beatles Blackbird, is the perfect showcase for McFerrin's rapid pitch shifts, dropping and rocketing through registers at the speed of light.
