Boogie woogie waltz (Zawinul) Zawinul has called "Boogie Woogie Waltz" "a hip- hop in 3." He has also said that former Sly And The Family Stone drummer Greg Errico played 'Boogie Woogie Waltz' better than anybody. [DB01] Errico played drums for Weather Report between Sweetnighter and Mysterious Traveller, but never recorded with the band. He told Glasser, "[Zawinul] still tells me that to this day! He was talking about that song 'Boogie Woogie Waltz.' He said, 'I finally stopped playing that song because I could never get someone to play it like that once you left the group!' It was in 3/4, but not in the traditional way. I mean, it was in three but I would play four against it, and played it aggressively." [IASW, 157] |
