Not to be totally random, but if you ever wondered what a vocal version of Bitches Brew might sound like, Eddie Jefferson gave us the answer in 1974.
Jefferson was shot and killed outside of Baker's Keyboard Lounge on May 8, 1979. He had left the club with alto sax player Richie Cole around 1:35 a.m. and was shot as he walked out of the building. Detroit was a tough town then. Impermanence is swift.
