To each his own... McFerrin is a genius. I saw him at the Paramount in Seattle, do a solo acoustic show that lasted over an hour... and NO One wanted him to stop... or got up & left. Joni could have gotten 3 backup singers for this gig... that couldn't have done what Bobby did for her. ^..^
I agree, the first song in this recording was obviously cut before it finished, which makes me think the rest of it must have been recorded (unless it was faded for a commercial break, although that seems unlikely as the musicians were really peaking in their playing together and in their responsiveness to each other). But I have searched the web head to toe and can NOT find anything else from that Showtime premiere. It MUST exist somewhere! WHERE can it be?? Anyone have any leads?
@John Gayton, Bobby McFerrins voice is his instrument, if you can't hear the amazing effects he's adding to this session, then you don't really understand music or talent, I feel sorry for you that you don't get it or hear it!
I so love Joni. But I"m sorry I don't get the Mcfarrin guy. Does he bring the beer or chips and dip? He doesn't sing, he acts like hes holding an instrument and just makes noises. To each his own.
They all respected her & knew she was the real deal...
This is out of this world, and I love Joni.
She is such a badass!!!
i love joni !!! she is my ultimate crush, has been ever since i first heard her back around 1969.
I love watching artists do their thing. We got to witness a very special, unique collaboration here.
This is a meeting of the best of the best. would so love to hear the entire album of this session

Damn, what a line up. Who is drumming, anyone know?
I believe it is Vinnie Colaiuta
She moves her mouth here like she's chewing gum. Not possible is it?
It would be great to see the entirety of Hejira . . . and who's that percussionist?
A M E N
Even if youtube charged me $500/month it would be very worth.
Who's the percussionist?
OOOOOOOMMMMMMMGGGGGGGG
Who was the drummer/percussionist ?!?

Pure Perfection..
