Meltdown: Ornette Coleman surprises Bobby McFerrin

Saw Bobby McFerrin tonight at South Bank, London as part of Ornette Coleman’s Meltdown.

I have seen him perform a number of times, the first time going back to the mid-80s when his first album came out. Whilst not a fan of his dabblings with poppy songs and a sometimes throwaway approach to some beautiful songs, I truly admire his voice. he really is one of the great innovators.

So to have Ornett...
