Bill, I had the same initial interpretation from Mark Potter's post. However, after thinking about it, I'm going with David Renaud's version this time -- the stretching part in particular rings a familiar bell. Speaking of jazz, just who -did- tune for Vince Geraldi (sp) anyway? I've often wondered if the occasional 'wolf' unisons were intentional or if he just liked that/those notes a lot and beat 'em down. It seems to be common to all his recordings.

It's what they call "complete freedom of >modulation". The slightest shade of "color" would disturb him greatly.
