Mingus, Miles & Coltran

Mingus, Miles & Coltrane
Mingus was a fiery guy
Who made his carnival from the bass
Coltrane had a spiritual vibe
But you know it was genius, no doubt
The rhythm's captivating, it’s got me spellbound
It electrified me until it took hold
And naturally, it settled into my sound
All the harmony I learned from Tom
Noel's sambas, such good grooves
It melted together mixed with jazz
Improvisation flows, it’s just too good
That’s how samba, which has always been mine
Dated jazz when it realized
Casually, a samba-jazz was born
With me, it’s Miles and Coltrane
I know I’m close to those who made me want to fly too
Taking the sound further, me and my love
With me, it’s Miles and Coltrane
I know I’m close to those who made me want to fly too
Taking the sound further, me and my love
